Travelup Reviews| Sydney



Sydney is the largest and most famous city in Australia. Because of this, many people add it to their holiday wish list. However, before flying off to this beautiful, historical city, it is a good idea to learn a little about it in the form of Travelup Reviews


Sydney is a very diverse city and is home to amazing, iconic buildings, beautiful, pristine beaches, landmarks steeped in history, amazing shopping opportunities, and many award-winning restaurants. With the idyllic tranquillity of Hyde Park, and the breath-taking views of the Sydney Harbour, Sydney definitely has something for everyone and a visit to the city is a dream of many tourists.

One of the first places that new, and returning visitors go to is the Sydney Harbour. Even though almost everybody has seen it in photographs and on television, nothing compares to seeing the Sydney Harbour Bridge, the Sydney Opera House, and the harbour itself up close. While at the harbour, tourists can take a leisurely walk along the Circular Quay or hop on a ferry to Watson’s Bay or Cockatoo Island, and enjoy the beauty of the harbour and its surrounding area from the water. When it’s time to eat, Circular Quay has some of the best restaurants in Sydney, including ARIA Sydney, CafĂ© Sydney, Quay Restaurant, and Guillaume at Bennelong, which is situated beneath the Opera House sails.

One of the most popular shopping areas in Sydney is the Queen Victoria Building, located in the heart of the central business district (CBD). While enjoying a shopping trip, tourists can spend time admiring this beautiful, grand, and historical building that dates back to the 1890s.

After a shopping trip, a great place to entertain the entire family is Darling Harbour. About a ten-minute walk from the Sydney Town Hall, this is the ideal location for family fun. Darling Harbour has many restaurants that offer harbour side meals, and after a meal, there are many opportunities to experience the varied and energetic nightlife that Sydney has to offer. In Darling Harbour you will also find amazing locations such as WILD LIFE Sydney, the SEA LFE Sydney Aquarium, and the Chinese Gardens of Friendship.

Tourists, who want a bird’s eye view of Sydney, can head to the top of the Sydney Tower Eye. From there, tourists can enjoy views of the entire city, over the Pacific Ocean, and the Blue Mountains to the west.
