Visiting
What to see, eat and drink in Ultimo
OpenStreetMap maps 11 restaurants, 32 cafes and 6 bars and pubs counted in Ultimo, and 7 named sights: museums and galleries, parks, monuments, viewpoints and other attractions. They are counted the same way as the places to stay: each place goes to the area whose centre is nearest, within that area's reach. This rule has no boundaries, so places near the edge can fall in a neighbouring area's count.
