Blog: We visited the Warradjan Centre at 9am sharp on a Friday in september 2007. It was only 1klm from Cooinda Resort in the South of Kakadu National Park where we stayed the night before and only 1.5km from Yellow Waters Boat Cruise boardwalk/jetty.

Being the only folks there it had an errie feeling but very overwhelming feeling as walked slowly thru the internal path system.

It was a mix of how the Aboriginals lived and used the land and also how they care for the land. Then we leanrt much more about the anima;ls from various other sections. We thought OK 5 mins and we would be out of there. 45 minutes we walked out very quietly and looked at each other and just said one one 'Impressive'. Photo's were not allowed inside so you will have to experience it in person folks.

"Our Land Is Our Life" The people from Murumburr, Mirrar Gun-djeihmi, Badmardi, Bunitj, Girrimbitjba, Manilakarr, Wargol and other clans have combined to create an exciting and memorable exhibit.

"Come Look and Feel Our Culture" The Aboriginal traditional land owners (Bininj) of Kakadu National Park have wanted to tell the story about their culture for a long time. Through the displays and exhibitions you can gain an understanding of the Bininj and their country.

Warradjan Gallery After you have journeyed through the display and explored the many facets of Bininj Culture, you can browse through a gallery of arts and crafts from Kakadu, Arnhem Land and Katherine regions, displayed for sale.

The majority of artworks are produced by local artists of this country.

Gallery Hours 9:00 am to 5:00 pm daily.

Kakadu National Park - Seasons

But Australia's Kakadu sees seasons of varied extremes -- so varied, in fact, that the park's longtime aboriginal inhabitants have divided the year into six distinct seasons.
• Kakadu Seasons - Gunumeleng Pre-Monsoon Storm Season - Gunumeleng, from mid-October to late December, may in fact last from a few weeks to several months.
• Kakadu Seasons - Gudjewg - Monsoon Season - Gudjewg, from January to March, can be described as the 'true' wet season.
• Kakadu Seasons - Banggereng - Knock 'em down storm Season - Banggerreng, in April, is the season when the rain clouds have dispersed and clear skies prevail.
• Kakadu Seasons - Yegge - Cooler but still humid Season - Yegge, from May to mid-June, is relatively cool with low humidity.
• Kakadu Seasons - Wurrgeng - Cold Weather Season - Wurrgeng, from mid-June to mid-August, is the 'cold weather' time; humidity is low, daytime temperatures are around 30°C and night-time temperatures are around 17°C.
• Kakadu Seasons - Gurrung - Hot Dry Weather - Gurrung, from mid-August to mid-October, is hot and dry.
