Car Rental Ipswich
- Cheap Discount Car Hire - Special Deals and Offers
Once a commercial and political rival to Brisbane, Ipswich remains
a vigorously-independent provincial city, 40km south of the capital.
The city developed from a convict settlement established on the Bremer
River in 1827 to work the rich deposits of limestone in the surrounding
hills.
The early settlement, coupled with the economic and strategic importance of the
town, has left Ipswich with a stock of magnificent examples of colonial government
buildings, churches, manor houses and Queenslander homes. A standout is the Court
House. Built in neo-classical, faintly Mediterranean style in 1859, it remains
one of the few surviving buildings constructed by the NSW Government before the
creation of a separate Queensland colony.
The city and surrounds are networked with a chain of parks and bushland reserves
well endowed with recreational and leisure facilities which offer tranquil bushwalks
and picnicking sanctuaries.
