My Travel in Australia

Monday, November 3rd, 2008

Last Year I organized a wonderful holiday in Australia, and I decided to spend one week visiting the city of Sydney, one of the most important town of the nation, here I want to give information about this amazing city of the Southern Hemisphere:

Cultural Center of the Australian nation, Sydney is a city certainly very beautiful and fascinating in all its aspects, certainly one of the most famous in Australia, is the capital of the state of New South Wales, the New South Wales and is characterized to be the oldest center of the nation.

The city of Sydney, common to other major centers in Australia overlooking the coast, is one of the main ports of the state, and is regarded internationally as one of the most beautiful and livable in the world, given the low incidence of the phenomena of violence and its great importance in the fields, economic, social and cultural.

The town lies in an area certainly very interesting, positioned between the Pacific Ocean in the east and the Blue Mountains in the western part, it follows that Sydney is present as an obligatory destination for lovers of the sea, beaches and especially the surf, with waves that are sought after by all lovers of the sport, although still a great metropolis, Sydney can look like a town green, where ample space is given to the parks, green areas and gardens, which give housing a deep sense of naturalness.

And many are absolutely fascinating buildings that are located in the city and representing one of its major attractions, we speak in this sense the Opera House, the true symbol of Sydney, a wonderful building in the shape of a sail that stands on the water port, but also the Harbor Bridge and the Sydney Tower, to symbolize its great importance in the cultural contributing the many universities are located in the same Sydney, as the University of Western Sydney and the University of New South Wales.

Sydney visit will be an absolutely captivating and worth living in all its nuance, in order to fully appreciate the beauty and charm, this is indeed one of the oldest cities in Australia and therefore what can best of all and tell the story and describe the events of the nation, the phenomenon of immigration, which has given a strong sense of multiculturalism, the colonization by Europe and the history of Aboriginals.
