Description
Darwin is the only capital city situated in the Tropics. In its comparatively short history, it has been almost completely destroyed four times by Japanese bomber pilots in 1942, and by cyclones in 1897, 1937 and 1974. It has suffered many vicissitudes in social and economic spheres, and it has other unique characteristics which make it special to all who live there.,
