La época dorada de Kings Cross: crímenes de la ciudad del pecado

ON THIS UNIQUE EXPERIENCE: You'll uncover the notorious secrets & scandals of Sydney's historic red-light strip with a professional guide & storyteller. Kings Cross: once a bourgeois neighbourhood of colonial mansions looking over the harbour, this inner city suburb began to transform into Sydney's late-night playground of vice and entertainment by the the 1920's & '30s. Amidst the bustling bohemian streets & neon lights, razor-wielding gangs lurked in dark alleys and crime-queens Kate Leigh & Tilly Devine battled for underworld supremacy over the sly-grog, dope and sex trade. By the 1960s & '70s, the Golden Mile of Kings Cross buzzed with local & international revellers who flocked to its infamous stretch of nightclubs, strip-shows & go-go bars. Dubbed in the media as Sin City, the growing underbelly of the area only increased as colourful club owners paid off the cops and installed organised criminal empires. By 1975 the neighbourhood was even embroiled in one of Sydney's most scandalous cold-case murder mysteries. This tour will bring to life the local characters, visiting rock-stars & forgotten flavours the Cross's Golden Age. It will reveal the quirky & glamorous Art Deco street-scapes of Potts Point; discuss the contemporary cafe & club culture; and delve into the controversial history of lust, luxuriance & long-nights that left its mark on so many, for so long.
