Sydney

Sydney is situated on one of the world\'s most striking harbors, where the two of its major icons, the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge steal the limelight. More then just a sprawling metropolis filled with skyscrapers and high-end shopping, its surprising to know that the capital of New South Wales, is actually quite close to nature. Within minutes you can be riding the waves on Bondi Beach, bush walking in Manly or gazing out across Botany Bay, where the first Europeans arrived in the 18th century. Thanks to its cozy subtropical climate, its no wonder locals prefer to enjoy their daily routines outside while taking in the nbeauty that is Sydney.
