Three Incredible Australian Sights
With its beautiful white sandy beaches, stunning coastlines and beautiful weather, it is unsurprising that Australia has remained such a popular holiday choice for years. With trips down under often seen as a once in a lifetime holiday, why not try and see the best the land has to offer while you're here? Here are some of the finest sights you can discover while on your holiday to Australia.
We have to begin with Uluru, a gigantic sandstone rock we are more familiar with as Ayers Rock. Unmistakably one of the country's most recognisable landmarks, it has become an icon for Australia, partly because of its unique glow of red during both dawn and dusk while also changing colour at different times during the year. The UNESCO World Heritage Site is also one of the defining sights of the Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, an area sacred to the Anangu who are the aboriginal people of the area.
Next up, we have the remarkable Kangaroo Island, a pristine natural habitat that is teeming with some of the country's most famous wildlife. Set just off the coast of South Australia, it is one of Australia's most popular tourist attractions, welcoming over 140,000 visitors annually. It is the place to be if you want to discover beautiful wildlife such as the southern brown bandicoot, common brushtail possom, the short beaked echnida and, of course, the koala.
No visit to Australia could be complete without a visit to Sydney, home to the iconic Sydney Opera House. Given pride of place on Bennelong Point in the New South Wales city, it is one of the most significant and groundbreaking buildings of the 20th Century and has become among the most famous performance venues on the planet, hosting over 1,500 performances and visited by 1.2 million people every year. Boasting a series of concrete shells to make up its roof, it is a must have picture moment for the average 300,000 people which visit the house every 12 months.
Finally, just around the corner in Sydney is the historic Harbour Bridge, a structure which proves popular for daredevil visitors to climb and is also an integral part of the famous New Year's Eve celebrations.
These are just three of the finest sights you can explore during your trip down under; however, this short guide hardly scratches the surface on the opportunities available to those who visit this fascinating country. Why not book your holiday today and discover what Australia can offer you?
