Fall in love with Sydney: Best places to see autumn leaves in New South Wales

A mere 20 minutes from the central business district and a lesser-known hideout to get your maple leaves fix, the Auburn Botanic Gardens - open from 9am to 5pm - lights up with the Autumn Colours Festival that happens every late May.

With enchanted mazes, fairy face painters and even a guided walking tour through the Japanese gardens, you will be spoilt for choice and lingering to stay longer.Australia's oldest botanic garden is also flooded with leafy pathways filled with plentiful reds, oranges and yellows come autumn.

Lauded as the"colour city" thanks to its vivid sights and golden poplars, Orange is the place to be for streets of ash, oak and maple. Every autumn, swathes of gold and bronze poplars line the streets. An excellent food and wine centre with a thriving gourmet restaurant scene as well, do not miss out on the chance to go on a wine tour while you are there.BLUE MOUNTAINS BOTANIC GARDEN

Located on Mount Tomah, it is one of the best getaway spots to soak in all the maples. If you are driving up, be sure to check out Leura, Wentworth Falls and Mount Wilson. These are the spots to hit, although on Blue Mountains itself, it is hard to miss the chance to see autumn foliage around each corner during its peak month of May.Get The New Paper on your phone with the free TNP app.
