It’s an ideal destination to explore and visit in the Albury Wodonga area with many activities to do.

Before we move on, please clarify what Albury-Wodonga refers to. Wodonga and Albury are twin cities located near the Victoria state border.

Albury is located on Murray’s north bank in NSW. Wodonga lies on Victoria’s southern shore.

The cities are close to one another so there is an easy way to see everything in Wodonga while staying at Albury and vice versa. It makes traveling easier and it is not necessary for you to visit attractions in both cities.

Many return season after season to explore these fresh countryside settings incorporating their urban twist. January and February are the hottest seasons, along with holidays and Easter, the happiest holidays of the whole family.

Autumn and spring are cooler but with streets filled with varying colors as flower blooms turn it’s an equally delightful time of year for visiting. In the winter months, June to August, the crowd of people decreases.

The coolest weather happens in July; however, do not forget to visit since the days are usually sunny with bright blue skies in albury botanic gardens.

The western end of the Albury major thoroughfare is Dean Street. A hill was completed by a monument to commemorate the First World War in 1924.

This white monument designed by architect Louis Harrison can be seen across Albury and several decades later it is joined by a memorial bowl honoring the military personnel serving during WWII.

You can climb a wooden hill from the city center and the height will give you an amazing view of the entire region. As we wrote it early 2020 works were being completed on road improvements at the site.

Following extensive upgrades, Albury Regional Art Gallery has reopened for slick contemporary artists and contemporary art experiences. Even the building is an artistic work with its facade crafted to act as an “art-surface”.

As for exhibitions MAMA combine traveling performances and artwork to give Albury an impression of place and identity.
