Sydney is the international gateway of Australia. It is famous for its beaches and twin landmarks: the Sydney Opera House and the Harbour Bridge. Sydney's iconic Opera House has five theatres and it is the home of Opera Australia - the third busiest opera company in the world, and the Sydney Symphony Orchestra. Sydney also has several interesting museums. The biggest are the Australian Museum, the Powerhouse Museum, the Art Gallery of New South Wales.The metropolitan area is surrounded by national parks, and contains many bays, rivers and inlets. Several parks in Sydney's far west are part of the World Heritage listed Greater Blue Mountains Area.
Situated on the eastern side of Gulf St. Vincent, Adelaide is noted for its attractiveness and relaxed atmosphere. The city itself is noted for its spacious parklands and gardens. Adelaide is known for hosting many festivals including: the Adelaide Festival of Arts, Fringe Festival, Adelaide Film Festival, Adelaide Festival of Ideas, Adelaide Writers' Week, and the Feast Festival amongst others. WOMADelaide, Australia's premier world music event, is now annually held in the scenic surrounds of Botanic Park. Enjoy the many elegant, heritage public buildings and cultural institutions such as the Art Gallery, Library, Museum, Migration Museum and Adelaide University. Explore the famous wine regions in the city's vicinity or go to the Park Lands. The Adelaide Hill Wildlife Parks might be a nice introduction to Australia's wildlife.
The town is called after Alice Todd, the wife of Charles Todd. In 1865, the two of them came to Australia to set up the first telegraph line. Because of its central location and its nearby red-colored rock-formations and the red-sand desert area, the town is also called the Red Centre. The town itself has some interesting sights to explore, such as: the botanical garden and the Spencer and Gillen museum. Trace the history of the first telegraph station in the red centre. Alice Springs is located centrally and a good place from which to explore the outback with its camel farms, the famous Ayers Rock (called Uluru - its original Aboriginal name) and several nature parks.
Uluru, previously named Ayers Rock, is one of Australia's most recognisable natural icons, consisting of a large sandstone rock formation in the southern part of central Australia. It is considered sacred to the Pitjantjatjara and Yankunytjatjara, the Aboriginal people of the area. They request that visitors not climb the rock, due to the path crossing a sacred traditional Dreamtime track. Uluru has many springs, waterholes, rock caves and ancient paintings. It is listed as a World Heritage Site. Uluru is notable for appearing to change colour as the different light strikes it at different times of the day and year. The sunset is a particularly remarkable sight when it briefly glows red. During the rainfall periods the rock acquires a silvery-grey colour, with streaks of black algae forming on the areas that serve as channels for water flow.
Once a quiet fishing town in North Queensland, Port Douglas quickly developed into a tropical paradise, due to its geographical position. The area of Port Douglas offers a wide choice of accommodations, ranging from budget campgrounds to luxury resorts. A must-see destination is the Great Barrier Reef, lying just 13 km off-shore; during your cruise, you may try diving, snorkeling or fishing. The ancient Daintree Rainforest gives you the chance to watch the native wildlife from treetop walkways; also, you should not miss a relaxing day on Four Mile Beach.
