Darwin is the capital of Australia's Northern Territory and the country's northernmost major city, home to approximately 150,000 residents. It shares the UTC+9:30 offset with Adelaide but uniquely does not observe Daylight Saving Time — meaning Darwin and Adelaide have the same time in winter but differ by an hour in summer when Adelaide switches to UTC+10:30. Darwin is Australia's most multicultural city proportionally, with over 60 nationalities, reflecting its location on the doorstep of Asia — Bali is closer to Darwin than Sydney is. The city was virtually destroyed by Japanese bombing raids in 1942 (more bombs fell on Darwin than Pearl Harbor) and again by Cyclone Tracy on Christmas Day 1974, giving it the character of a repeatedly rebuilt frontier city. Kakadu National Park, one of Australia's most significant UNESCO World Heritage Sites with Aboriginal rock art dating back 20,000 years, begins about 150 km from Darwin.
