Sydney and its Opera House Jorn Utzon is the artist behind the architecture of the Opera House. © Corbis / Age Fotostock
The most populated and dynamic of the Australian cities sums up "the Australian way of life" by herself: for its cachet (not only due to its Opera House and iron bridge, which are more or less the only monuments in the city), its greenery (botanical garden), its activity (King Cross) and its magnificent setting, with Botany Bay at its centre, and the Pacific beaches around it (Bondi Beach is the most famous) and the outlines of the Blue Mountains. Just take a cruise in the Harbour, cross Sydney Harbour Bridge on foot, and climb up to its arch to have a better view of the city, or to the summit of the ATM Tower Centrepoint. Have lunch in one of the port restaurants (The Rocks, Darling Harbourg, Manly, Watsons Bay). Visit the Museum of Contemporary Art, the Australian Maritime Museum, the Chinese Garden, the Sydney Aquarium and the Royal Botanic Garden.
