About Sydney

Sydney sluter sig runt en glittrande naturhamn, med ett berömt operahus med segeltak, gyllene surfstränder och ett avslappnat liv utomhus.

Sydney Opera House och Sydney Harbour Bridge ligger mitt emot varandra över Circular Quay, där färjor kommer och går. The Rocks, det gamla koloniala kvarteret, har pubar av sandsten och helgmarknader, och Royal Botanic Garden böjer sig runt Farm Cove till Mrs Macquarie's Chair för den klassiska utsikten över båda landmärkena.
