Gladstone Queensland | The Industrial City That's Redefining Tourism

As the largest natural harbor in Queensland, Gladstone has become a great cruise ship port with a lot to offer visitors. The video highlights the city's effort to make the experience of docking in Gladstone enjoyable for all. Upon disembarking, visitors are welcomed with parks, museums, restaurants, and live music, along with local markets and food trucks. The committed volunteers offer maps and a schedule of daily events around town. Visitors can enjoy the Feast on East event and shop for local souvenirs while getting a sense of local life.

The video also suggests a few attractions worth visiting, including the Tondoon Botanic Garden, which features every native Australian plant species, and the East Shores Precinct, home to the maritime museum, the HMAS Gladstone, and a massive coal plant. The Art Gallery and Museum, historic Grand Hotel, and convention center are all within walking distance of the port entrance.

Despite its industrial reputation, Gladstone is also the first city to be powered by hydrogen and natural gas and is poised to double the world's hydrogen power supply. The video highlights the city's innovative approach to tourism, using its industrial nature as an asset to design an attractive and enjoyable experience for locals and visitors alike.
