Due to the largely inbred population of Launceston, and indeed, Tasmania, nice places in Launceston are rare. One such exception is George Street, which is generally bogan-free and is filled with some of the more upper-class shops such as The Mac Shop (the closest thing Launceston has to an Apple Store). Another nice place to be is Civic Square, which has some nice grassy bits and fountains and is near a nice big clock.
