Sydney is the capital of New South Wales, being both a place for business and pleasure filled with all the cosmopolitan amenities such as shopping, restaurants, nightclubs. Some have compared this city to San Francisco. One of the main attractions is the outdoors, the Pacific Ocean gleams with sunshine and sailing boats. There are many waterways and national parks surrounding the beaches. Sydney has the highest aboriginal population in Australia, walking down the streets you will find little evidence that it has anything other than a white/Asian heritage. There are many museums, theatres and dance centres. Sydney developed into one of the world's greatest cities when the Olympics were held. In the events, Sydney was transformed, the streets remodelled, and new street furniture were injected. This is what made Sydney an easier city to navigate in. The weather is also a big factor of why one would want to visit, tropical summers and mild winters result in year long fun. There are many harbour views, Hyde Park is one of the many attractions that one should visit.
Located in the centre of Sydney, the tower is 1,000 feet towards the sky and has the highest observation deck with 360 degree views. The tower offers free tours at the start of every hour. There are also restaurant facilities in the tower.
This is home to many koalas, meerkats and dingo's, with 75 acres of bushland. The zoo also features a great view of the Sydney Harbour. They also have a platypus house and a rainforest aviary. The nocturnal animals are kept underground, as they need night time conditions. Bradleys Head and Military roads. (02) 9969-2777
The Blue Mountains are among the most serene attractions to see as a visitor to Sydney. Many eucalyptus trees drop oil into the atmosphere, creating blue light rays, thus creates the azure haze. The park is surrounded by resort villages for long stays and day trips. Transportation by trains leaves for the mountains daily from Sydney's Central Railway Station.
