About BANKSTOWN

Bankstown is a suburb in south-western Sydney, in the state of New South Wales Australia. Bankstown is located 20 kilometres south-west of the Sydney central business district and is the administrative centre of the local government area of the City of Bankstown.

Bankstown's central business district is clustered around Bankstown Railway Station. The commercial area beside the railway station is known as Bankstown Plaza, while the ethnic diversity of the area has created a host of great restaurants, eateries and cafes.

Centro Bankstown (previously known as Bankstown Square), is a large shopping centre (mall), immediately to the northeast of the railway Station. It was first opened in 1966 and has been expanded a number of times. The latest project was completed on 22 June 2006 and includes a new Big W and Woolworths supermarket, a ''Fresh Life food district'', as well as various specialty shops and 1000+ new parking spaces.

The Bankstown Central Library has been serving Bankstown on its present site in The Mall since 1954. Eight years earlier in 1946, Bankstown became the first municipality to adopt the Library Act of 1939 by opening a Children’s Library, located at Restwell Street. The Bankstown Central Library was demolished in 1981 to make way for a current facility which opened in 1983.

Parks and recreation
Bankstown has 293 parks covering 730 hectares within its city limits. There are 41 sports grounds, 12 community parks and 18 natural parklands.

'Bankstown City Gardens' were opened to the public in 1973. The park is on of the city's most picturesque sites. These gardens bring together many unusual types of flora found in Bankstown and beyond. The park is set on carefully landscaped grounds with walkways taking visitors through flowerbeds. The park consist of different areas, native, tropical, rose garden and Perennial. The park has also proven popular for wedding photographs.
