Architecture Details, Broken Hill, New South Wales (NSW), Australia. Broken Hill has been called The Silver City, the Oasis of the West, and the Capital of the Outback. It is an isolated mining city in the far west of outback New South Wales, Australia and located near the border with South Australia on the crossing of the Barrier Highway and the Silver City Highway, in the Barrier Range. Unlike the rest of New South Wales, Broken Hill and the surrounding region observe Australian Central Standard Time, a time zone it shares with South Australia and the Northern Territory. Although over 1,100 km (684 mi) west of Sydney, and surrounded by semi-desert, the town still manages colourful park and garden displays, and offers a number of attractions. Broken Hill and the surrounding area has many natural and man-made attractions on offer for the tourist. These include mining operations (some open to the public), a visitor's centre and lookout on top of the original Line of Lode mine, historic buildings, town history walking trails, many resident artists and galleries, the Sculpture Symposium, COBB
