These markets hawk Australiana souvenirs by the busload, and are home to a handful of wildlife sanctuaries. If they're feeling friendly, you can cuddle a koala (or pat wombats and wallabies) at the Kuranda Koala Gardens . The Australian Butterfly Sanctuary is Australia's largest butterfly aviary, with over 1500 tropical butterflies: half-hour tours are available. Birdworld re-creates the habitats of over 80 species in its unique rainforest environment – not for orinthophobes.
