Port Arther Historical Site UNESCO 🇦🇺
#australiatrip
Port Arthur, the prison at the end of the world in Port Arthur, Tasmania, is a historical site located in the southeastern part of Tasmania, Australia 🇦🇺. It is famous for being a place of exile during the 19th century British colonial period. This place was initially established in the 1830s as a place to punish prisoners, especially those considered to have a high recidivism rate. The establishment of Port Arthur was based on the popular concept of punishment at that time, which was to transform prisoners through harsh environments and physical labor ⛓️.
Arthur Harbour, as one of Australia's most famous historical sites, attracts thousands of tourists every year. It is listed as a World Heritage Site not only because it showcases the history of the 19th-century prisoner system, but also because it reveals the complexity of early Australian society and culture 🏛️.
Port Arthur is not only a prison complex but also includes hospitals, madhouses, churches, and schools, as well as residential areas for prisoners and the military. The prisoners here were used for arduous physical labor such as logging, construction, and shipbuilding, which played an important role in the development of Tasmania at that time 🔨.

I am here #I am here# Port Arthur Historic Site Don't look at the beautiful mountains and clear waters here Now the green plants are lush and quiet. The quiet and quiet look like I thought it was sad and sleepy at the beginning. I didn't see the sky. I couldn't live in a prisoner.
Port Arthur Historic Site is a very important historical area of Australia. It was the first port of arrival in Australia by British colonists, and most of the sites were prisons and were the place where British prisoners were held at the time. Although it is broken, you can see that the prison here has been quite large and modern more than 100 years ago, it is worth the money to visit
Traveling to Australia, this stop is in Hobart, the capital of Tasmania, and the historic site of Port Arthur is one of Hobart’s most famous attractions. The historic site of the Prison Church, which was previously an ancient prison building, shows the local prison environment of more than half a century ago, and the justice system in Tasmania. Visitors can see the former courtroom here, or follow the dim stairs to the cell to see the cell's environment. I took a map to visit, the map marked a lot of places, now we see only a ruin, although the court, cells and other places, but also erected a sign, you can use your fantasy to imagine the original picture at that time.
beyond expectations! great atmosphere and the place is well maintained.
Port Arthur Historic Site in Tasmani, Italy, was put into use in 1830 and was then a purgatory on earth. Over the past forty years, more than 12,000 British prisoners in exile have been detained here. More than 100 years later, Port Arthur, though not as daunting as the colonial period, has a trace of vicissitudes and bitterness. The prison is surrounded by mountains, like a natural barrier castle, which was the most dreadful place for exiles at that time. People called it Hell Hole. There are more than 30 buildings, ruins and reconstructed antique houses, and so on. It takes you a day to visit them. Between Port Arthur and Tasmania, there is a narrow area of Shaanxi Province, surrounded by a large number of sharks, known as "the prison that can not escape". Visitors can visit ancient churches, powder depots, prisons and guard towers built by prisoners. There is also a prison museum full of peculiar style, you can see many pictures and objects of that time, even prisoners'clothes, whips and chains, etc., others shudder.
Port Arthur is still a very historic attraction. The environment is still good. I like the feeling of taking a boat to sea. Faced with the sea breeze, some historical relics look very decadent in the distance. It is said that this place used to be a place of exile, so some buildings can still be seen. Where some prisoners lived.
Port Arthur is located on a peninsula in southeastern Australia. It has a long history, dense trees, beautiful coastline and picturesque scenery. Geographically isolated from the rest of the world, it was used by the then British government as a place for the detention of heavily imprisoned prisoners between 1830 and 1877. It is the most well-preserved and largest ancient prison in Australia and has been listed on the Australian National Heritage List. Today, all we can see is the ruins of Port Arthur Prison, which were burned down by two forest fires in 1895 and 1897, with only a few ruins. But the remnants of the British style, reflected by the blue sea and sunny day, have a unique shocking beauty. It is said to be the most attractive tourist attraction in Tazhou and a must-visit place for tourists from Europe and the United States.
