Sydney
,
Australia
In recent years, the island continent of
Australia
has become a favorite for tourists from around the world.
Sydney
, the nation’s largest city with over 4m inhabitants, is one of the prime destinations.
Sydney
with its magnificent harbor is itself a treasure trove of sights and activities and within a few hours of other cities such as
Canberra
,
Newcastle
,
Melbourne
, and the
island
of
Tasmania
. When going inland, the verdant coast gives way to the dry Outback with its hues of brown, yellow, and orange dotted with the ghostly pale trunks of the Eucalyptus.
Sydney
– one of the world’s great cities, combining modernity with what is uniquely Australian.
