Take a ride up in the Sydney Tower. It costs around 10 A$. Nearby the tower is the Queen Victoria Building also called the worlds most beautiful shoppingcentra. I have not seen so many shoppingcentras before but it was beautiful. |
| The tower is located in the middle of Sydney and its view is wonderful.An advice is to bring your own coffee cause the cafeteria is very expensive. |
 |
| A half an hour boattrip from the operahouse is the Manley Beach. It´s a pretty good beach with several restaurants. You can also go here with bus but the boat is nicer. Other beaches in Sydney is Bondi, Coogee, Nielsen Park and Palm Beach. |
 |
| It´s a really nice promenade along the water, all the way to the operahouse. |

Sydney is, as I said earlier, a very nice city with lots of famous places and buildnings.Many of the real old buildings is made of sandstone. A thing you really notice when you arrive to Sydney is the festive atmosphere at the pubs.People talk to eachother and have fun.And it dose not cost much to buy a beer. There are great restaurants everywhere. BYO meens "bring your own", it meens your own wine and beer. That, I call service. The waiter takes1A$ for open up your winebottle. Alkohol is much cheeper in so called "bottleshops" than on the restaurants. |
| For the one who like nightclubs (also the more erotic ones) shall go to Kings cross. This is a long road where the small souveniershops turns to real partyplaces in the evening. Also Oxford street, a short cabride from Kings Cross, is worth a visit in the evening. |

Hard Rock café is located in walkindistace from Kings cross and serves the greatest hamburgermeal in the world. Try it! More nightlifte is in a area down at the harbour. Jump in a cab and go there around 8-9 in the evening. It´s a very nice promenade at the harbour, for small boats, with many small pubs. A beer costs 5A$ at the pubs. |

Far outside from Sydney is the Blue Mountains. It is well worth to visit if you like great naturescenes. They say that the mountains is suppoed to turn blue in the evening sun.The area is a big national park called the Blue Mountain Nationalpark an it has still many unexplored areas. There is roads and viewingspots in just a small part of the park. In the small city Katoomba you find the worldfamous "three sisters".The road goes all the way to the viewing point. You can reach Katoomba by car or train. The train leavs Sydney central station every hourand costs 10A$. A few miles from katoomba is the Wenthworth falls which is a beautiful waterfall. |
| The city Katoomba, with it´s 17 000 inhabitans, is a cousy little town located in the mountains. There are lots of cafeér along the roads. To see a godd map with all sights in the Blue Mountain Nationalpark press here. |
