    DISCOVER AUSTRALIA

    TOP SIGHTS, AUTHENTIC EXPERIENCES

    Welcome to Australia

    Australias cultural and geographic identity has been forged by 4.5 million years of isolation. The countrys harsh, beautiful landscape has a resilience that rubs off on the people.

    No matter which Australian city youre wheeling into, youll never go wanting for an offbeat theatre production, a rockin live band, lofty art-gallery opening, movie launch or music festival mosh. This was once a country where cultural cringe held sway the notion that anything locally produced simply wasnt up to scratch. But these days the tables have turned. Aboriginal arts particularly painting and dance seem immune to such fluctuations and remain timelessly captivating.

    Most Australians live along the coast, and most of these folks live in cities. It follows that cities here are a lot of fun. Sydney is a glamorous collusion of beaches, boutiques and bars. Melbourne is all arts, alleyways and Australian Rules football. Canberra transcends political agendas. The chilly southern sandstone city of Hobart offers the warmest of welcomes. Many city dwellers love to escape the big smoke for the big skies of the red centre, the tropical forests of the far north, or the pounding surf of an unspoilt beach.

    Australia plates up a multicultural fusion of European techniques and fresh Pacific-rim ingredients. Of course, beer in hand, youll still find beef, lamb and chicken at Aussie barbecues. Dont drink beer? Australian wines are world-beaters: punchy Barossa Valley shiraz, Hunter Valley semillon and cool-climate Tasmanian sauvignon blanc. Tasmania produces outstanding whisky too. Need a caffeine hit? Youll find cafes everywhere, as Australians take their coffee seriously.

    Sydney

    To much of the world, is Australia: a happy, sun-washed place with great beaches, broad accents and delectable food. But Australias oldest, boldest city is much more than a national clich. Spread out around the deepest (and, some would say, the most beautiful) natural harbour in the world is a buzzing concentration of great art, shopping, culture and major events. And then, there are its indelible icons: the instantly recognisable Sydney Opera House and Sydney Harbour Bridge.

    Canberra

    Though is only a century old, Australias purpose-built capital has always been preoccupied with history. So its not surprising that the major drawcard here is a portfolio of lavishly endowed museums and galleries focused on interpreting the national narrative. Institutions such as the National Gallery of Australia, National Museum of Australia, National Portrait Gallery and Australian War Memorial offer visitors a fascinating insight into the countrys history and culture both ancient and modern.
