Introducing Wagga Wagga
‘Wagga’ is the state’s largest inland city, a pretty place with fine buildings, wide tree-lined streets and lovely riverside gardens. Though it sprawls across a large area, it has the feel of a relaxed country town.

The name means ‘place of many crows’ in the language of the local Wiradjuri people, but an alternative meaning is ‘dancing like a drunken man’.
