Australia Attractions

There is no single reason why tourists visit Australia, the country which is also the continent. For some tourists this reason is a great nature that includes plenty of unspoiled areas, endless sceneries, wild parks and tropical rainforests. In Australia you will see many animals such as koalas, kangaroos, wombats or kookaburras. Other tourists are attracted by Australian cities – Melbourne, Perth, Canberra, Adelaide. And of course, in Australia there is one of the world’s top cities – Sydney. The silhouette of the Opera House at the edge of the harbour is one of the main symbols of Sydney.

Canberra is the capital of Australia. The city is not as big as Sydney or Melbourne and can be discovered within one day. The main attractions of Canberra include the Australian National Gallery, Australian War Memorial, National Botanical Gardens, and the Parliament House built partially underground.

Other Australian attractions include the Great Barrier Reef on the east coast. The Reef is a home to plenty of amazing ocean species. Here one will also find top dive sites, ones of the best in the world. The peaks of the Blue Mountains in New South Wales and Wilson's Promontory in Victoria offer spectacular surroundings and wild sceneries.
