My brother lives in Darwin and we visited the Mindil Market while I was there. It is such a great thing to do while you’re in Darwin but my sister-in-law did warn me to be careful of getting any kind of braiding of henna tattoos done without first agreeing on a price. I can imagine it isn’t easy to negotiate price once the work has already been done.
