About BOWRAL
The site of Bowral was initially known as Wingecarribee, then changed to Burradoo. By the time the railway station was built in 1867 it became known as Bowral. In 1798 Governor Hunter sent a party to explore the southlands and accumulate information about the area as convict escapees were heading that way in the belief that China was only 150 miles away. The expedition was led by ex-convict John Wilson. Land grants were awarded in 1823 when pastures in the Sydney area were becoming scarce. The arrival of the railway in 1867 brought visitors from Sydney who were attracted to the pleasant country air and the European climate.
Today Bowral is the commercial centre of the Southern Highlands, with extensive cattle breeding and grazing. It has a reputation for brilliantly maintaining an old-style facade which dates back to colonial times and has many boutiques, gift shops, antique shops, restaurants, cafes, bookshops and art galleries. The Tulip Time festival is held annually in September/October.
