Timeline
19:24
Walk south from the Art Gallery of New South Wales through The Domain to the Brett Whiteley Studio. Arrive early to soak in the quiet atmosphere and the tribute to Sydney’s most famous artist before the crowds gather.
20:09
Stay at the Studio for the sunset. The position offers a view toward the WSW, aligning perfectly with the sun dipping below the horizon. Enjoy the golden light filtering through the windows.
20:34
Walk eight minutes north back toward the gallery area to Jazushi. Order Japanese and European share plates and sit at the open air bar to digest as the evening cools down.
21:09
Head five minutes north to The Tilbury Hotel. If it is a weekday, join the after-work crowd inside, or take the upstairs balcony for quiet drinks and music away from the street noise.
