SELF
GUIDED TOURS ENHANCING THE UNIQUE FEATURES OF THE DREAMTIME
CULTURAL CENTRE
The
Dreamtime Cultural Centre is situated within 12 hectares of beautiful
landscaped gardens. The grounds themselves provide the visitor with
an opportunity for hours of enjoyment simply walking around the
property. Set on the Northern side of Limestone Creek, the major
points of interest include the native plants, trees and a large
waterfall. In addition to the many guided tours offered, self-guided
tours are also catered for.
The
Vanishing Culture of the Sandstone Belt - a stunning 34-metre display of recreated sandstone caves not only
entertains but also educates people on the environment of the Central Queensland Sandstone
Belt. Also portrayed is the traditional Aboriginal people of this area, the early days of
the Aboriginal mythology, and the significance of Kenniff's cave, being both the history
of Aboriginal occupation in Australia and the early history of cattle-duffing in the
region.
Native
Plant Tour -
this is a comprehensive self-guided tour looking at the various
uses plant life provided to the Aboriginal and Torres Straight
Islander people. These were basically for Food and Medicines,
through to hunting and material uses.
All of these tours give the onlooker a
thorough insight into both the Aboriginal and Torres Straight Islander culture. The
combination of these two distinct cultures within the one complex provides the DREAMTIME
CULTURAL CENTRE with a very unique appeal.
