Sydney beats the heart of Australia. It is the liveliest city in the country and boasts a collection of Australia's biggest attractions. Below are some of the best things to do here.
If you are visiting Sydney with the family, the Toranga Zoo is one destination that you are sure to fall in love with. This zoo has a collection of interesting species from both Australia and around the world providing plenty of edutainment for both the young and the old alike. There is a total of 2900 different species that call the Toranga Zoo their home and this includes all time favourites such as Kangaroos, Koalas, Lions, Chimpanzees, Gorillas and even a wide variety of birds. For the ultimate experience with the wildlife get yourself a roar and snore package. This offers guests a one of a kind opportunity to camp at the zoo and witness these amazing species after dark.
When one thinks of Australia, the iconic Opera House is the first place that comes to mind and the best part is it is located very much in the city of Sydney. If you are staying at the Oaks Hyde Park Plaza which happens to be a Sydney City Hyde Park hotel, the Opera House is just 7 minutes away by taxi. Adorning the Sydney Harbour, the Opera House flaunts magnificent architecture and has been used as the building that has promoted Australia for decades. Apart from its external appeal the Sydney Opera House also plays host to the finest collection of performance arts and music. If you are into opera you will find no better place in Sydney.
Sydney's Harbour is a famous place not only because of the Opera House but also because of the Harbour Bridge as well. Yet another historical marvel, the bridge flaunts a unique design and boasts a structure worthy of awe. To do justice to your Harbour Bridge experience you could also try the specially designed Bridge Climb Expedition Packages where visitors will be taken right up this superstructure accompanied with a guide.
Sydney is a coastal city that is adorned with a shoreline that offers plenty to see. One particular unique experience that one can have along the shores includes the famous walk from Coast Bondi to Congee. Not just a walk, this expedition gives you a chance to appreciate so many things about Sydney's unique shoreline. On your way you will learn plenty about Australia's history while enjoying some stunning Ocean views perfect for those memorable photographs.
Sydney nestles a number of major attractions by the harbour. One such place is the Madame Tusssauds. Madame Tussauds is a wax museum where you can find wax recreations of a number of famous people. In fact the structures are so real that when you take a photograph, it looks as though you really had a time mingling with famous people.
