Get in

Getting to Chullora

Parramatta is next to the M4 Western Motorway (toll; need an E-Toll tag or call them to pay). Parramatta is well signposted from the motorway. Surrounding suburbs also have signposted exits from the city. If you are in no hurry you can use Victoria Rd or Parramatta Rd. Traffic between Sydney City and Parramatta during peak hours can be extremely slow.

See

Worth seeing

The Parramatta Tourist information and Heritage Centre is where Church St crosses the river at Lennox Bridge. It has a free exhibition showing the history of Parramatta from colonial to modern times. As Parramatta was the first site of European settlement outside Sydney it contains many historical landmarks. How interesting this is to you will depend on your historical perspective.
