Marulan, NSW

The 150˚ meridian is used as the basis for Australian Eastern Standard Time, giving Marulan true time. During the equinox, occurring twice a year in autumn and spring, the sun rises precisely at 6am and sets precisely and 6pm. Marulan is the only town in the Australian Eastern Stand Time Zone that can say this truly occurs. Meridians are also an aid for navigators on the lonely runs from south to north.

Marulan features a number of historic buildings including two churches, a rectory, historic pub and some fine examples of commercial buildings dating back to 19^th Century.

The township is steeped in history including bushrangers holding up traffic travelling north to Sydney from the Southern goldfields.

Come fly a kite in Marulan during September at the annual Kite Festival that features kite making and flying as well as art exhibitions and markets.

Marulan's Australia Day activities in January, Harmony Day multicultural celebration in October and Christmas lights tours are all very popular. Every visitor is welcomed with country hospitality.
