A City that sparkles in sunshine and captures the heart like no other city in the world.
 
Sydney is a city surrounded by a beautiful harbour whose waterways, beaches and bays act like a magnet for Sydney-siders and visitors alike. Sail, catch a ferry, swim, sunbathe, picnic, dine at a harbourside restaurant or walk beside picturesque beaches - the activities are endless. 

At the entrance to the City, the Opera House and The Harbour Bridge offer two magnificent architectural masterpieces. Visit the busiest performing arts centre in the world and explore the many options for "getting close" to the Harbour Bridge. You can walk across, climb over the top, wonder at the engineering magnificence from underneath it's steel girders or explore the areas where Sydney was first was settled. Discover these cobbled lanes and alleyways and hear how early settlers struggled to establish the City we now know.

Back in the CBD, modern skyscrapers compete for space alongside the early colonial sandstone buildings. Parks and gardens are dotted throughout the City with the Royal Botanic Gardens hugging the harbourside foreshores. Strolling through the gardens it is hard to believe that you are only a stone's throw from the City.
