We spent 2 days at the Rocks..Sunday we spent at the craft market, best market I have ever been too..So many crafters with there wares..prices exceptional and choice of goods awesome..
Recommend visiting the Lord Nelson Hotel and microbrewery and strolling through the streets, learning about Sydney's past. There are also a number of walking tours available. Many pubs offer luncheon meals with harbour views from their rooftops.
Yes it's busy on the weekends...but it's still charming and a delight to walk around. Don't rush it. Enjoy the small streets and markets and cafes etc. Can't wait to go back again!
Its a nice view of the old town and conveniently located near circular bay. We visited the place on a Friday walked from circular bay. There is a market on Friday but not much stalls. They closed at 5pm so be sure to visited before 5pm. The place is quite small and nothing much except some nice building. Would be...

Its a good place for those who enjoy markets but there is a small variety of eating places but mostly english style dining such as sandwiches and tea, coffee etc.
The Saturday market includes many vendors, musicians and great food. The products being sold are generally nice. It is not your crap-tourist-cheap-souvenir kind of market. The market opens at 10am. We wondered around and stayed for lunch. The market and a trip to Manly on the ferry made for a perfect Saturday in Sydney.
Really nice little pubs dotted around this area, some aren't even busy on a Saturday which is good. It always makes me feel like i'm walking around New York or something when i am in this part of Sydney. Def worth a visit.
It is hard not to get a great photo here with the juxtaposition of new and old. Thank goodness for those Green Bans in the '70s that preserved this beautiful and historic areas. I did feel that the quality and range of shopping has diminished over the years.
Fabulous little corner of Sydney, so many eating/drinking places. I took a guided walk and the commentary and history provided were brilliant. Lots of up-market shops in the area as well. Markets on weekend. All good - a must do when in Sydney.
