Lloyd Rees Fountain Sydney, Sydney, Visitor Guide & Things to Do Nearby

Lloyd Rees Fountain is a public fountain at Martin Place in the centre of Sydney, Australia. It stands in the heart of the city's business district, so it is easy to fold into a walk through the centre on foot.

Tips for your visit

• Plan on a short stop of a few minutes for the fountain itself, and longer if you want to wander the Martin Place area around it.
• The fountain is outdoors in the city centre, so daylight is best for photos, and the streets are usually calmer outside weekday rush hours.
• It is easy to reach on foot or by public transport from elsewhere in central Sydney, and plenty of cafes and other city sights are nearby.
• Conditions around the site can change with building work or city events, so check current access before you set out.
