Corowa: YCOR -> WNW

Corowa straddles the Murray River corridor between New South Wales and Victoria in the Riverina, a position that long linked it to farming communities on both banks. The river gives the town its defining edge, while Wahgunyah lies directly opposite and the vineyards of the Rutherglen wine region are nearby in Victoria. Corowa also holds a distinct place in Australia’s federation story: the 1893 Corowa Conference helped shape the campaign for the colonies to unite. Its Federation Museum preserves that association. Place Corowa in its wider Murray River setting by browsing webcams from the Riverina and north-east Victoria.

New South Wales is widely known within Australia for Sydney Harbour, home to the Sydney Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bridge. The state extends from the Pacific coastline across the Great Dividing Range to wide inland plains within the Murray–Darling Basin. Sydney is Australia’s largest city and a major centre for finance, arts and international travel, while inland districts are strongly associated with farming and long distances between towns. The Blue Mountains, west of Sydney, form part of a UNESCO World Heritage area of eucalyptus forests, sandstone escarpments and deep valleys.

Australia’s terrain extends from tropical rainforests in the northeast to arid plains in the interior, producing dramatic climatic contrasts. The Great Dividing Range follows much of the eastern coast, while the Great Barrier Reef lies off Queensland in the Coral Sea and Uluru rises from the central desert. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples maintain living cultures whose connections to Country long predate European settlement. In Sydney, the sail-like Opera House, completed in 1973, stands beside one of the world’s best-known harbours. Discover further points of interest through webcams located across Australia.
