Things to do in Ciccone

Alice Springs Desert Park

A bit like Noah's Ark, this desert park brings together all the animals of central Australia and puts them in convenient locations for viewing. The park is divided into desert area, sand area and forest area, and you can mingle with this vast desert and more than 120 kinds of animals and more than 350 kinds of plants that live in it by walking. There is a 1.6-kilometer walking trail in the park, which is easy and pleasant to walk. If you are lucky, you can also encounter kangaroos, wild boars and short fat wrens during the visit. The park faithfully reproduces the habitats of the animals, and the park provides helpful signboards that explain the changing seasons and how local indigenous people adapt to their natural environment and use these natural changes to plan their lives. In the nocturnal animal exhibition hall, you can observe the living conditions of nocturnal animals such as owls, bats and rodents in the dark, as well as endangered bandicoots and ghost bats. If you want to watch eagles or other raptors pounce, head over to the Nature Theater.

Alice Springs Telegraph Station Historical Reserve

The old telegraph office, 5 kilometers from the city, is where the name of the city of Alice Springs originated, but it is a beautiful misunderstanding. Springs doesn't mean spring, but a waterhole on the Todd River, just behind the old telegraph office. But it has already dried up. The old telegraph office had a large yard, and when you walked in, there was a horse farm, a blacksmith shop, and an old man who was beating a telegraph. The sun is very good, and the white flowers are dizzying. A man who looks very "underworld" walks around on crutches, and his style is a bit like old Marlon Brando in "The Godfather". It is not difficult to imagine what kind of important role such an organization in Alice Springs, which is so vast and sparsely populated, has played. Across time and space, it seems that you can see the person who is missing, in the sound of "click, click", send every word to people in the distance.

ANZAC Hill

Mount Anzac is a well-known symbol of Alice Springs and the location for panoramic views of Alice Springs and Mount Macdonald. The monument on the top of the mountain was unveiled on Anzac Day on April 25, 1934, to commemorate the martyrs who died for Australia in World War I and subsequent wars.
