I Go To Port Arthur in Tasmania [No.1]

Port Arthur in Tasmania is located on the Tasman Peninsula, about a 90-minute drive from the state capital, Hobart. 

This site is a representative historical site of the "Australian Convict Sites," a UNESCO World Heritage Site. 

It also has a history as a brutal penal colony in the 19th century, and today it is a vast open-air museum with more than 30 buildings and ruins remaining.

I Go To Eaglehawk Neck / Tasmania

Eaglehawk Neck is a narrow isthmus connecting mainland Tasmania and the Tasman Peninsula, and was once the site of the historic "Dog Line," which prevented prisoners from escaping. 

It was a strategically important military point leading to the Port Arthur penal colony, and today it is a tourist spot where visitors can enjoy unique rock formations such as the Tessellation Pavement and a beautiful coastline.

We Stay The Fox and Hounds Historic Hotel, Port Arthur

"The untouched natural beauty of the Tasman Peninsula exudes the feeling of a lost era, untouched by mankind, off-grid and eco-living combined, with nature and wildlife as a priority."

The above text is an excerpt from the hotel's website, and based on my experience staying there, I completely agree with it.

Fox & Hounds Hotel doesn’t have a town water supply, but naturally occurring spring water has been treated for guests, and bottled drinking water is supplied for the rooms.
