This museum is a must see in Darwin. It's well laid out and has lots of interesting exhibits. The Cyclone Tracy section is eerie but brings the history to life. Since the museum is free it's worth the trip.

The museum and Art Gallery is a great place to understand and learn more more about Darwin and the NT. The displays are very informative and the Cyclone Tracey exhibit is fantastic. It is free to enter well worth attending.
Loved the variety of dispalys - indigenous, Cyclone Tracey, animals, modern art etc. Free admission. A very nice little cafe and gift shop. Really enjoyed this place.

Some terrific pieces of indigenous art. Excellent cafe. No admission charge though I heard that might change. Huge ugly stuffed croc, the famous Sweetheart.
