Eastern Australia

Contents

Eastern Australia refers to the eastern jurisdictions of Australia and encompasses the following regions:

The states and territories in Eastern Australia. The ones in orange are only sometimes included

However, the term can be ambiguous, pending the following reasons:

  • Queensland is not always considered as "eastern", and sometimes Eastern Australia can only mean the jurisdictions that use AEST/AEDT time zone (New South Wales, Victoria, Tasmania and two other territories).
  • South Australia is also sometimes considered to be part of Eastern Australia as Adelaide is considered to be one of the four state capitals of Eastern Australia.
  • Sometimes Eastern Australia only refers to mainland states and territories, so Tasmania is sometimes not counted
This article is on an extra-hierarchical region, describing a region that does not fit into the hierarchy Wikivoyage uses to organise most articles. These "extraregion" articles usually provide only basic information and links to articles in the hierarchy. This article can be expanded if the information is specific to the page; otherwise new text should generally go in the appropriate region or city article.
