When I think back on my time in Sydney, the first two things that come to my mind are the sun and the variety of things to see and do. It seems that this city has hundreds of different faces and versions of itself, and it gives you a chance to enjoy days and days exploring them all. That is precisely what I did. That is why I adore Sydney and I always love to get back to this city. I simply worry that I am missing out on something every time I am not there. Here are some of my favorite places and things to do in this remarkable place.
Climbing the Harbor Bridge
It does not matter if you are a part of a group or on your own, this is the attraction that you should definitely try. It is probably more fun when done with somebody else, because you need to feel free to shout out all those feelings that your adrenalin causes. You will have a guide and you will be safe and secured at all times. It is a walk that you never forget. Also, Bridge Climb has gift certificates, so they may be a cool gift for somebody that you know would appreciate.
The Rocks and the Museums
The Rocks is the oldest part of Sydney and that is the spot where the European civilization entered the continent of Australia. You do not need to seek for anything specific in this part of Sydney, but try wondering the streets and observing the architecture. There are many contemporary museums and art galleries at this part of the city. Susannah Place Museum will take you back in history, while Museum of Contemporary Art displays the latest works of art.
The Amazing Parks
It is hard to decide between the Centennial Park, Botanical Garden and the Chinese Garden of Friendship. Each of them has so much to offer and it is impossible to explore two of them in a day. You can go to Centennial Park and get a historic tour of the parklands. The magnificent Chinese Garden of Friendship features stunningly arranged and designed gardens in Asian style and you can look around and enjoy them throughout the entire day. The Botanical Garden is packed with exotic plants and hidden corners for you to discover and explore.
The World Famous, Stunning Beaches
There are so many amazing beaches in Sydney that it is really hard to pick the most famous or the most beautiful ones. So, to explore the most of the coastline, a great idea would be to find some electric bikes and make a tour from Bondi to Coogee. If you are lucky, you will see the amazing sculptures by the sea near Bondi which is just an awesome sight. Trust me, these bikes are more than helpful when it comes to long tours. Your legs will thank you. And you will be able to visit some more distant beaches such as beautiful Long Reef Beach or Palm Beach.
Wildlife at Taronga Zoo and Sea Life
Aquarium
You simply need to decide whether you are more curious about the sea world or the wild animals. Both of these attractions are absolutely breath-taking. While you can go and watch the shark feeding in the Sea World Aquarium, the Taronga Zoo has the Wild Ropes course where they teach you how to climb the ropes and see the animal world from above.
The View from the Tower Eye
Enjoy one of the most amazing views in Sydney and climb 250m above the ground level. That is just how high the Tower Eye SkyWalk is. On Wednesday mornings, you can even participate in yoga classes on the Observation Deck. But you need to reserve your spot there because those classes are very popular.
Besides all these amazing things that nature gave to Sydney, there are also the urban style parts of the city, such as Surry Hills. New and trendy bars and cafes, as well as a lot of street art are to be found here. Therefore, you simply need to take your pick among the many sides of Sydney, or make your own personal favourite combination of them all.
