DARWIN, 6 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE YOU HEAD TO CONGRESS

1. Darwin was named the 10th best city to visit in the world by Lonely Planet in 2012.
2. It's closer to Bali (2.5 hrs) and Singapore (4.5) than it is to Melbourne.
3. May Day weekend begins as Congress comes to a close. It's a celebration in the NT, the Monday is a public holiday and a street parade will be held in Darwin.
4. The picturesque and challenging Alice Springs Gold Course is among one of the world's top ten desert golf courses.
5. Darwin was bombed more times than Pearl Harbour during WWII. The Defence of Darwin Experience is rated the number one attraction on Trip Advisor and won the Travellers Choice Award 2014.
6. The city has a population density of 0.1 per square kilometre, so be sure to tip your hat to everyone.
