Vacations To Sydney For A Better Big City Experience
By Julia Barnes
Australia is divided into six states—New South Wales,
Queensland, South Australia, Tasmania, Victoria, and
Western Australia. Before looking at vacations to Sydney,
you’ll need to review your options and choose
which area to visit.
New South Wales houses the metropolitan area of Sydney,
with its rich art, architecture, fashion, nightlife,
shopping and culinary delights. Queensland is a great
place for scenic drives, amusement parks and animal
sanctuaries.
South Australia is the center for manufacturing, but
also holds many beautiful lakes, islands and parks.
Tasmania has the most diverse flora and fauna of all
Australia and also hosts an excellent selection of locally-brewed
beer, wines and home-grown dairy products.
The Best Big City Experience
Victoria is not only known for business, agriculture
and manufacturing, but also for its museums, extreme
sport opportunities and natural beauty. Western Australia
is famous for its mining, fishing and wine making operations.
Of all these places, vacations to Sydney, New South
Wales offer the best big city experience down under!
When business travelers go to Sydney, they find themselves
right in the heart of the Central Business District
(CBD). Shoppers make a beeline for the Queen Victoria
Building, the pedestrian mall on Pitt Street, upscale
luxury boutiques on Castlereagh Street and Crown Street
or alternative shops on Newtown Street or Enmore
Street.
Reasons To Visit Sydney CBD
If you’re staying in CBD Sydney accommodations, then
you’ll be just steps away from the Museum of Sydney,
the Theatre Royal, the City Recital Hall, the Sydney
Opera House, the Museum of Contemporary Art, the Australian
Museum, the Powerhouse Museum and the Art Gallery of
New South Wales.
Festivals like the Sydney Festival in January and the
Sydney Film Festival in June are also popular reasons
to visit the CBD. Many visitors stay at the Swissotel,
the Westin, Grace Hotel or the Saville 2 Bond Street
Apartments.
Bargain Shopping In Dixon Street
City South, situated just South of the CBD, includes
neighborhoods like Chinatown, Capitol Square and Haymarket.
People who take vacations to Sydney and stay in this
district love bargain shopping! The Chinese-decorated
Dixon Street pedestrian mall is a popular place to
start.
Paddy’s Markets, located within the Haymarket, offers
trendy clothes, sunglasses, souvenirs and food. World
Square near George Street and Liverpool offers speciality
shops and competitively-priced electronics can be purchased
at Capitol Square.
The Famous Kings Cross
While staying here, the famished shopper can choose
from a number of Chinese seafood restaurants, as well
as cheap and tasty Asian dishes. Sydney vacation accommodations
include Sydney Central Youth Hostel, the Mercure, the
Macquarie Boutique Hotel, Aaron’s Hotel and Citigate
Central.
To the East, you’ll find Sydney’s City East district,
which includes many of Sydney’s most eclectic neighborhoods,
such as King’s Cross (the "red light district"
of Sydney), Oxford Street and Taylor Square (the nexus
of the gay epicenter), Moore Park (full of sports arenas),
Surry Hills (home to artists and pubs), Crown Street
(a Middle Eastern/Indian mecca) and Woolloomooloo (gentrified
waterfront area).
Backpackers Stay At The Jolly Swagman
Vacations to Sydney ending up in the East district
are often frequented by younger travelers who are looking
for art, culture and nightlife. Many backpackers stay
at the Jolly Swagman, Eva’s Backpackers or Hotel 59
in King’s Cross.
Other cheap Sydney vacation rentals include Lido Suites
($99/night), Sullivans Hotel ($135/night) and Cambridge
Sydney Hotel ($110-190/night).
