History and Cultural Heritage

Cowra’s World War II story is both significant and moving. Visit the original camp site at the Cowra Prisoner of War Camp Site and pay respects at the Cowra War Cemetery, where carefully tended grounds honour those who served. The town’s journey from conflict to reconciliation is symbolised by the extraordinary relationship with Japan, reflected across memorials, gardens and annual events. Round out your understanding at the Cowra Regional Art Gallery, which presents rotating exhibitions that connect local stories with broader Australian art and culture.

 


 

Japanese Garden, Blossoms and Tranquil Spaces

Renowned as Australia’s largest Japanese garden, the Cowra Japanese Garden and Cultural Centre is a serene landscape of winding paths, waterfalls and manicured plantings. It’s a year-round retreat, but shines in spring during blossom season, when soft pink hues frame tranquil ponds and sculpted pines. Inside, the cultural centre hosts exhibitions and tea ceremonies that share Japanese traditions and their connection to Cowra’s reconciliation story. Nearby parks and riverside spaces extend the calm—perfect for families, photographers and anyone chasing a mindful pause in nature.

 


 

Nature, Wine and Country Lifestyle

Beyond town, scenic drives reveal vineyards, orchards and rolling hills typical of the Central West. Sample cool-climate Chardonnay and Shiraz at boutique cellar doors, then linger over regional produce at country cafés and pubs. Outdoors, follow the Lachlan River for peaceful fishing and kayaking, or choose short walks with big-sky views across farmland. For planning cellar-door routes, events and seasonal highlights, the regional guide at Visit Cowra is a handy companion when shaping a relaxed, flavour-forward itinerary.
