Sydeny
General Introduction:
Sydney is in New South Wales, it is the capital and port also the biggest city in Australia. Until 2006, Sydney's population is about 428.4 million. Sydney's climate is mild, also annual rainfall. The warmest is in January, the coldest is in July. This climate is a little bit like Shanghai in China. About 200 years ago, this was a wasteland, after two centuries of hard exploration and management; it has become one of Australia's most prosperous, the modernization and internationalization city. Australia is the typical immigration country, its language there are several, first the main language is darug; the native in Sydney is cadigal. But now the main Australia language is English.
Australia's seafood is famous in the world, in any offshore restaurant, we can enjoy Australia produce of abalone, oyster, the emperor crab, lobster or balmain bugs (a kind of sea crab).
I think the best tourist line is: the first day, you can go to the famous Sydney tower and the Sydney opera house. The next day, you would go to Australian Reptile Park & Wildlife Sanctuary, and in that night, we will go to Paddy’s Market and The Rocks Market for shopping. On the third day, you can go to the Central Coast to enjoy swimming, but also we will go fishing for fun and enjoy the Hawkesbury taste the delicious seafood for dinner. I choose to these places because these places are representing Sydney culture and local feature, but I also like this places all.
