Right near the hub of action in Paddo
Paddington (otherwise known as Paddo) is an energetic, alive and vibrant suburb. This hub of Sydney attracts those who love fashion and shopping, as well as eating fairly healthy food. Something would be wrong if you were bored here.

A wonderful French patisserie lives here
A couple of creative private colleges are making their mark in the area as well. Paddington is also within close proximity to the SCG.
What Paddington is known most for:
The Paddington Markets (otherwise known as the Paddington Bazaar)
Designer Clothes, especially on Glenmore Road. Think Camilla and Marc.
Laid back cafes during the week. Crowded brunch outlets on weekends.
Art and photography lovers
A sushi train where you can actually chill out and relax
An authentic French patisserie that has stood the test of time
Spirituality events such as Medicine Rhythm Presents Water, and The Future Sound of Yoga. These events are held in a Uniting Church too.

Fashion paradise on Glenmore Road
Who lives in Paddington:
Young single professionals who can afford to live here
Young and middle aged couples
Cat, art and fashion lovers.
The area is mainly occupied by terrace houses and apartments. New apartments reign on busy Moore Park Road, and the Paddington Reservoir is home to some popular new apartments along Oxford Street.

Passionate photography. Love it.
