Sydney is the largest city in Australia with approximately 4 - 5 million people. It is centered
around Sydney Harbour which is the location for the Sydney Harbour Bridge, affectionately known as the coat hanger, and the Sydney Opera house. The harbour is surrounded by a belt of National Park used for recreational activities such as fishing and walking, but most importantly relaxing. North of the city is Manly Beach, while south is Bondi Beach. Sydney offers a host of things to see and do. There is the Sydney Aquarium, Taronga Zoo, Imax theatre and Star City Casino. Spend time exploring the sprawling suburbs including the infamous Kings Cross or catch a game of Aussie Rules or cricket.
