Morning
Start your day in classic Newtown style with a strong coffee at Barmuda, 283 Australia Street. Then follow Australia Street to Lennox Street and turn right. At the end is St Stephen’s Church, designed by Edmund Blacket (see St Andrew’s Cathedral). Beside the church is the entrance to the historic, peaceful Camperdown Cemetery. Soak up the Gothic atmosphere before heading back to hectic King Street. Check out the bookshops, cafés and funky clothing stores that run almost as far as Little Queen Street. Turn left, cross over Carillon Avenue and enter the manicured grounds of the Sydney University. Turn right into Physics Lane, left into Fisher Road, and right into Manning Road, reaching the archway that leads through to the Main Quadrangle. Pass beneath the Gothic Revival clock tower and wander down University Avenue to the open space of Victoria Park. Finally, head to bohemian Glebe Point Road to Badde Manors for lunch.
Afternoon
Follow Glebe Point Road to Pendrill Street, turn left and follow the scent of incense downhill to the Sze Yup Temple. Turn right into Edward Street, left into Eglington Lane, and right again into Edward Lane to reach Jubilee Park. The Pope Paul VI Reserve can be found in the northeast corner. When done, catch a 431 or 434 bus back to town.
