Welcome to Sydney
Sydney has a reputation like no other in Australia - it's not only the oldest and largest, it's also widely considered the most cosmopolitan and liveable cities in the country. The city center is compact and easily navigable, and it has an excellent transit system that allows you to explore the outlying neighborhoods with ease. Throughout, visitors find a stunning displays of art, culture and history at galleries, museums, eateries and clubs, not to mention modern architecture contrasted by colonial Victorian structures lining the streets.
The metropolis is also known as the Harbour City, a reference to its delightful location alongside the Sydney Harbour. In fact, many will tell you that Sydney is the most beautiful city in the world due in part to its lush nature. The miles of coastline lays sparkling ocean water up against pristine sands, while the other sides of the city are surrounded by national parks filled with dense bushland, walking trails and friendly wildlife. Guests also enjoy a comfortably temperate climate - there are an average of 300 delightfully sunny days every year, but the temperatures often stay cooler than other Australian locales due to cold fronts from the ocean.
