Penrith Museum of Printing

Reviewed By jeank158

A small museum with a lot to see: I was lucky to visit on one of their open days when they were busy setting up then running one of the presses. It was intriguing. All the people there knew so much about printing. I could ask questions and hear their stories. They showed me the big drawers of metal letters for each font, the large letters in metal type for headlines, the different presses, historic photos, and printed samples of work.

Just a short drive south of Penrth is this hidden gem. Spectacular vistas and breathtaking views of this section of the Nepean River await you if you're prepared to venture to this quiet and somewhat isolated area near Mulgoa. From the car park it's only a short walk to the lookout and well worth the effort ... ... there you'll be rewarded with the peace and tranquility of this beautiful area

Westfield Penrith

Reviewed By karenm642 - Sydney, Australia

Great clean easy lines. Plenty of shops, good variety. Plenty of parking and food venues . Nice straight set out... you can't get lost. But just visited again and there was a vicious fight near the Riley street entrance. No security to be seen. I walked the LENGTH of the plaza looking for a concierge desk. Didn’t see a security dude but found a tiny desk down near the food hall ... too late. There were young women being beaten by a manic young guy. Gees. Everyone just looking. Typical. Are there cameras ?? Very upsetting
