Often confused as being the countries capital, Sydney is the largest and most internationally recognised city in Australia. Located on the East Coast, approximately halfway between Melbourne and Brisbane it is a main hub for finance, commerce and industry not only for the state of New South Wales, but also for the country. With a population of almost 4.5 million people enjoying a moderate climate, Sydney attracts visitors for many reasons, including those visiting friends and family, business travellers and of course international tourists who either arrive and depart through Sydney or have it on their 'must see' list.

On the famous Sydney Harbour sits the main CBD and port area. Circular Quay and Darling Harbour provide an idyllic setting to view the skyline that consist of the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Sydney Opera House. There is a wide variety of accommodation, restaurants, bars and entertainment in the area. The Australian National Maritime Museum is a great way to learn about the history of Sydney from early settlement, through the World Wars of the 20th century as well as the importance of the maritime industry and the coastal waters of Australia.

Of course all that Sydney City has to offer isn't located in a few square miles and visitors will also want to visit places like Bondi Beach in the East, Manly to the North and even the Blue Mountains to the West.
