In the center of Newcastle, New South Wales, there is a citizen's park which is the main place for local residents to take a walk. The park has Cook Memorial Sculpture, War Memorial, etc. There are museums, churches, city halls, etc. around the park. On the left side of the city hall, there is a small organic plant sculpture called " "}Bulb" "}. Inspired by the fleshy stems found in plants, it aims to provide a connection between the architectural environment and nature.

Newcastle is a small city located in the northern part of New South Wales, Australia. It is so small that you can walk around the whole city in two hours. However, it is a globally renowned port city and still one of the leading coal export ports in the world. To understand this city, shopping is essential. Here, old and new architecture blend together, and there is also a rich indigenous history. The Newcastle Technical School and Trade Hall on Hunter Street in the center of Newcastle are the two most distinctive buildings.
