Sydney was one of the first towns to be colonized when the British arrived in Australia; so impressed were they by the climate and the natural surroundings that they dropped anchor here first. The Sydney Opera House and the Sydney Harbor Bridge have done more for Sydney tourism than any other structure. The bush land around the Opera House has been carefully preserved and one can see animals there that are normally seen only in the wild.
The Iconic Opera House
Right through the year there are cheap flights to Sydney to tempt the traveler. The Sydney Opera House is the iconic structure that most people will recognize. The Harbor Bridge is also close by and you can start your sightseeing from this point. Many of the events of the 2000 Sydney Olympics took place in the neighborhood so that tourists who came at that time could see the famous buildings and the events. From many flights to Sydney, you can see these buildings from air.
No matter in which direction you travel in Sydney, at some point you have to cross the Sydney Harbor Bridge. You can go up the South-East pylon where strategically placed telescopes allow you unhindered views of the land and sea. There are old fashioned games to indulge in at the same place.
A Touch of History
If history interests you may like to see some of the forts in Sydney. Flights to Sydney also pass over some of them so you get an aerial view too. Towards the end of the South Head of the peninsula is Watsons Bay. From Watsons Bay can be had some of the most spectacular views of the Harbor Bridge and beyond. While there, don't miss out on seeing The Gap, an ocean cliff.
The next stop for the tourists The Rocks. The presence of old historical buildings and the nearness to the Circular Quay makes this a very popular touristy area. You can shop here for souvenirs and crafts of the native people. There are walks that take you past many of the old historical buildings.
View Sydney from Sydney Tower. That's a wonderful experience no matter when you do it, day or night. It is Australia's second tallest tower. Circling the tower is the Skywalk, a glass bottomed platform 260m above the ground.
A trip to a city is not complete without visiting the museums that preserve its history. There are several to choose from according to your interests. For relaxation, Sydney has a number of parks. Take a look at the Hyde Park and the incomparable Royal Botanical Gardens. Most are free and open without any holidays.
The Sydney Beaches
With a long coastline, beaches are bound to be an attraction. There are the Bondi Beach, Manly Beach and several others all equally alluring to the visitor to Sydney. Taronga Zoo and Sydney Wildlife World complete the animal circuit, though there are several smaller places and the Sydney Aquarium to visit. This is so promising a place; the traveler should look out for cheap flights to Sydney.
