Everything about The Top End totally explained
The
Top End is the second northernmost point on the continent of
Australia, behind the
Cape York Peninsula. It covers a rather vaguely-defined area of perhaps 400,000 square kilometres bounded by sea on three sides (the
Indian Ocean on the west, the
Arafura Sea to the north, and the
Gulf of Carpentaria to the east), and by the almost waterless semi-arid interior of Australia to the south.
The Top End, though less frequently visited and less well-known overseas than the arid southern part of the
Northern Territory, referred to by Australians as the
Red Centre and the largest town of which is
Alice Springs, contains the Territory's other major towns,
Darwin,
Katherine and
Palmerston.
The transition from the lush, steamy tropical environment of the north to the semi-arid
mulga scrubs,
mallee, and
sand dunes of the centre is gradual, and the demarcation line that divides the Top End from the centre is arbitrary.
