East Point Reserve and Military Post
East point Reserve is quite a nice area to take a bit of a drive along
The area was heavily fortified during the war, with several large guns designed to protect Darwin Harbour.
The East Point Military Museum is now housed in the original concrete army command post on 4 acres of tropical gardens. - See more at: http://www.enjoy-darwin.com/darwin-east.html#sthash.J7ewwjsM.dpuf
