      Admission prices
      Adults $6
      Children (under 12 yrs) $3
      Family (2 adults & 2 children) $15

      since always, as far as I can remember, which is more than 15-20 yrs ago.

        I've been there twice and it was free. I don't remember, what decade I went there last though, either 80s or 90s?

          Late 80's IIRC was free, possibly when it opened for the bicentenary…not sure when they introduced the fee but it was quite a few years ago! ;)

    I went a bit over a year ago and there was an admission fee then.

          I remember going in 1997 and there was an admission fee back then.

    I wonder how many Chinese are on this forum. We Chinese just love bargains.

      With a name like City 'bargain' Hunter, I wouldn't expect any less :)
