Port Arthur Convict Tour ,World Heritage

      亞瑟港位於澳洲的塔斯曼島,過去英國殖民澳洲時把許多罪犯送到澳洲隔離,這是澳洲保存最完整的罪犯遺址.18 和19世紀時罪犯們在這裡建立一個非常完整的自給自足的社區,相當有歷史價值,因此被列為世界遺產,也是塔斯曼島最吸引遊客的旅遊點.
       從塔斯曼島的首府哈伯特港開車約60公里可到亞瑟港,購買參觀門票進入園區,可以花一天的時間,自由參加導覽和遊港,並在園區參訪各個古建築.我們第一天選擇傍晚時來這裡叁加導覽,夕陽時的古城特別迷人.第二天的早上我們再度拜訪這裡遊港,古蹟和港灣的搭配古樸之美讓你有回到過去的想像空間,這是到塔斯曼島不可錯過的景點.
        Port Arthur is a small town and former convict settlement on the Tasman Peninsula, in Tasmania, Australia. Port Arthur is one of Australia's most significant heritage areas and an open air museum.
        The site forms part of the Australian Convict Sites, a World Heritage property consisting of eleven remnant penal sites originally built within the British Empire during the 18th and 19th centuries on fertile Australian coastal strips. Collectively, these sites, including Port Arthur, now represent, "...the best surviving examples of large-scale convict transportation and the colonial expansion of European powers through the presence and labour of convicts.
       Port Arthur is officially Tasmania's top tourist attraction. It is located approximately 60 kilometers (37 mi) southeast of the state capital, Hobart. In 1996 it was the scene of the worst mass murder event in post-colonial Australian history.
