"Aussie Aussie Aussie... Oi Oi Oi !!!!!" Sydney by RedEaredPanda

Sydney Travel Guide: 5,743 reviews and 13,367 photos

Sydney is a rare jewel - sparkling both day and night - and the city reflects the Australian personality - a bit brash, a bit cheeky but warm, outgoing and friendly. And it knows how to party! There is something for every visitor - first class hotels, restaurants, beaches, theatre, sight seeing, nightlife and its overall vibrancy.

The City of Sydney is the local government area for Central Sydney. It includes the Central Business District (CBD), The Rocks, Millers Point, Dawes Point, Chippendale, Ultimo and Pyrmont, Glebe and Forest lodge, Woolloomooloo, Kings Cross, Potts Point, Rushcutters Bay, Elizabeth Bay, Darlinghurst, the University of Sydney, Darling Harbour, the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital and parts of Surry Hills.
Sydney is the most popular tourist destination in Australia, attracting 4 million visitors annually.

Australian Flower- Waratah

Found mainly on the coastal plains and tablelands of the State of New South Wales. There are four kinds of waratah.
These shrubs and trees have tough, dark green leaves, often toothed edged. The waratah is really hundreds of individual flowers crowded together into a dense head.
They flower from September to November in rocky and sandy soils from the Blue Mountains of New South Wales to the north in Queensland

Aboriginal Art

This is an example of an Aboriginal Outback Art. Majority of the art is on canvas as paintings and on musical instrument called the didgeridoo but you may also find art done on clay pots and pans, etc...

Aboriginal art sites include cave paintings, rock etchings, hand prints on cave walls and mcuh more.
The real thing is very expensive, however you can always find the imitations for much cheaper and they look just as good. To support the aboriginal artists and their continous contribution of art to public, we encourage people to buy only one art but an original and from an original aboriginal art store.
