If the essence of modern Brisbane is a new sense of sophistication then the Queensland Cultural Centre in some ways sums up the city's new aspirations. Brisbane does not enjoy a reputation as an important home of the arts (in fact southerners tend to regard it as the home of philistinism and anti-intellectualism). It may be a reaction to this criticism which led the city to construct Australia's finest cultural complex which was opened to coincide with the Brisbane World Expo in 1988. This superb complex now includes the Queensland Art Gallery, the Performing Arts Complex, the Queensland Museum and the State Library. Address: Queen Street, Brisbane

This superb complex now includes the Queensland Art Gallery, the Performing Arts Complex, the Queensland Museum and the State Library. Located just over the Victoria Bridge from the city's central business district, the complex was designed by the local architect Robin Gibson. It has successfully drawn together, on the banks of the Brisbane River, most of the city's major cultural activities. Surrounded by subtropical gardens it consists of the John Oxley Library, the Queensland Museum, a number of restaurants, and the Performing Arts Complex. Address: Queen Street, Brisbane
