Map of Parramatta, NSW 2150

Parramatta (; Dharuk: Burramatta) is a city and major commercial centre in Greater Western Sydney. It is located approximately 24 kilometres (15 mi) west of the Sydney central business district on the banks of the Parramatta River. It is commonly regarded as the second CBD of metropolitan Sydney.

Parramatta is the municipal seat of the City of Parramatta local government area and is often regarded as one of the primary centres of the Greater Sydney metropolitan region, along with the Sydney CBD, Penrith, Campbelltown, and Liverpool. It has a long history as a second administrative centre in the metropolitan region, being host to a number of government departments, as well as state and federal courts.

Founded as a British settlement in 1788 (the same year as Sydney), it is the oldest inland European settlement in Australia and serves as the economic centre of Greater Western Sydney. Since 2000, state government agencies such as the New South Wales Police Force and Sydney Water have relocated to Parramatta from Central Sydney. The 151st meridian east runs directly through the suburb.
