Surfers Paradise, on the Gold Coast of
Queensland
|
Australia is the sixth-largest country in the
world and is divided into 6 states and several territories. The 6 states are New
South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, Tasmania, Victoria and Western
Australia. The two major territories are the Northern Territory (NT) and the
Australian Capital Territory (ACT).
The largest part of Australia is desert or
semi-arid, but the south-east and south-west corners have temperate climate and
moderately fertile soil. The northern part has tropical climate, which is part
tropical rainforest, part grassland and part desert.
When you go to Australia, you
just cannot miss seeing The Great Barrier Reef. It is the world’s
largest coral reef and extends for over 1,200 km! It lies a short
distance from the north-east coast.

Another spectacular place to visit is Uluru.
It is the second largest monolith in the world and is located in central
Australia. You can also visit the Great Artesian Basin, which is the
world’s largest and deepest fresh water basin. Along with its beauty, it
also serves as an important source of water in the parched outback.
You sure can’t miss going to Sydney if
you visit Australia. Sydney is located in a coastal basin situated between
the Pacific Ocean to the east and the Blue Mountains to the west. You can
enjoy all the activities associated with beaches because there are more
than 70 beaches in Sydney! If you have limited time, then you can only go
to the famous Bondi Beach of Australia.
Sydney has more amazing landmarks for you
like Sydney Harbour Bridge and Sydney Opera House. Both are located in
Sydney Harbour. If you are interested in rowing, boating, recreational
fishing, racing small yachts and Dragon Boat racing, then you can get all
that in Sydney Harbour.
The city also boasts of musical, theatrical
and artistic activities which come under one roof in the Sydney Festival
which happens every January. More information can be found here - Sydney
Australia.
Melbourne
is another major city of
Australia which is situated in the south-east corner of the mainland
Australia. It has a large and vibrant cultural life along with a chain of
pubs, bars and nightclubs. Fashionable nightclubs, ubiquitous faux-Irish
pubs, serious jazz venues on Bennetts Lane, massive pickup joints like The
Metro on Bourke Street are all part of the city’s magic.
If shopping is what tempts you the most,
then there are many reasonably priced shopping places where you can go and
shop till you drop. Melbourne has innumerable clothing shops for every
budget and various outlet stores in Bridge Road, Richmond for bargain
hunters too!
Perth is a city known for the pristine
quality of its beaches. Unbroken stretches of golden sands run through the
entire length of the city’s coastal suburbs. If you are a nature lover,
then you got to see this place. Adelaide or the ‘City of Churches’, as it is
often referred as, is a coastal city situated on the Fleurieu Peninsula. The
name City of Churches is a reflection of Adelaide’s past rather than its
present. The city has many wine growing districts such as the Barossa
Valley.
