Young Henrys

Reviewed By WhyDontWe - Singapore, Singapore

Great beers and laid back chilled out atmosphere. There are about 3 big dogs chilling with what seems to be the staff/ owners. I even had the first beer on the house for no apparent reason except “Welcome to Young Henrys”, how nice. Free wifi and water is available for self service as well. Beers come in smaller sizes, full pint and seems like tasting paddle is available as well. Closes at 7pm so do make a trip out to this part of town even if you don’t stay here. Part of the ale trail so pick up your trail map here.

Camperdown Cemetery

Reviewed By gaistrouthos - Sydney, Australia

This tranquil Church yard of St Stephens, Newtown is the last resting place of the early settlers of the city. The cemetery was founded in 1848 and was for twenty years the main general cemetery for Sydney, with the total number of burials being about 18,000. Many people who were important to the early history of colonial Australia are buried there, including those who perished in the wreck of the Dunbar. St Stephen's Cemetery is associated with several reputed ghosts and a murder. This is a very important historical place for the city.
