Hello everyone! This post will be a bit different from my previous posts, it is a guide for those who are visiting or plan to visit Sydney. Living in Sydney for a long time, has allowed me to visit many places and travel within the city. Bellow are some of my suggestions for those who are visiting Sydney. Although, this post does not cover every place you should visit it concentrates on tourist attractions which are located in or near the CBD.

Darling Harbour
The Darling Harbour has different attractions for both children and adults. These include the
Chinese Gardens of Friendship, the National Marinetime Museum, the Star City Casino
and much more.
The Chinese Gardens of
Friendship
Filled with ancient Chinese architecture, water features and colourful fish, the Chinese
Gardens is the perfect place to relax within a vibrant city. This place provides different
activities and tours, including lantern decorating activities for kids, the opportunity to
dress in traditional clothes and they provide food and beverages in a cafe within the
gardens.

Sydney Opera House
This white building is by far my favourite attraction within the city and its one of the
most recognised attraction in Australia. Opera House as some describe it as the white
'shell' building, is a multi-venue performing arts centre in Sydney.

This iconic building is a must see if you are in Sydney and they also have bars and
restaurants inside and around the building. If you are interested in watching any performances
or taking a tour of the inside of the building visit the link bellow for more information:
Harbour Bridge
Harbour Bridge
Close to the Sydney Opera House is yet another iconic structure, the Harbour Bridge. The
best way to see the bridge is while you are visiting the Opera House.
However, if you are not scared of heights the Harbour Bridge Climb is a must do activity
while in the city. This allows you to not only see the bridge but also observe the city. For
others, there is a precedent footpath to walk across the bridge.
