Although Maryborough is a small city compared to the big metropolises in Australia, it is big on attractions that will surprise you with their beauty. It will only take you a four-hour drive from Brisbane, so if you find yourself wanting a more peaceful environment, go to Maryborough. One thing you’ll notice upon arrival is how every landmark has a story to tell, especially the downtown area. If you love art, culture, and history, make sure to visit the Maryborough Military & Colonial Museum, Armistice Memorial, and Maryborough Mural Trail. Story Bank Museum, the birthplace of the author of the famous Mary Poppins, Pamela Lyndon Traverse, is also a must-visit.
