This city is extraordinary and must be visited at least once in a person\u2019s life.\u00a0 My initial experience with Sydney occurred when I first arrived at the airport. The city seemed like a little starry sky to us at night on the ground, but during the day it had become incredible.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.international-student-office.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Sydney-Harbour-Bridge.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-30772\" src=\"https:\/\/www.international-student-office.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Sydney-Harbour-Bridge-300x224.jpg\" alt=\"Sydney Harbour Bridge\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.international-student-office.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Sydney-Harbour-Bridge-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.international-student-office.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Sydney-Harbour-Bridge.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nThe question for each traveler is where to begin their adventure of the beautiful city. There are numerous places that simply must be on the checklist of every Sydney visitor. The most beautiful places you must have seen in Sydney in my opinion are: Sydney Opera House, Pitt Street, Chinatown, Harbour Bridge and Harbour, and Tarango Zoo. But, if you build up an appetite, George Street is one of the most desired destinations.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Must-See Landmarks<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\nLet&#8217;s start with the landmarks of Sydney: The Sydney Opera House, with its unique architecture, it is one of the most famous buildings in the world. The next major &#8220;attraction&#8221; would be the Harbour Bridge and the associated Harbour Bridge climb. People have the opportunity to climb to the highest point, of course, with professional help. It is an extraordinary feeling throughout Sydney that many marvel at. Furthermore, there is the world famous Tarango Zoo, which I will tell you about in a separate report.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">How to get to Sydney?<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.international-student-office.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Sydney-Opera-House.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-30777\" src=\"https:\/\/www.international-student-office.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Sydney-Opera-House-300x224.jpg\" alt=\"Sydney Opera House\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.international-student-office.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Sydney-Opera-House-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.international-student-office.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Sydney-Opera-House.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nFrom Manly, taking the ferry is the best and cheapest way to travel to Sydney. If you are a group of students, you get a discount, but don\u2019t forget your student ID card! The next place to visit is Chinatown. It takes only 5 minutes with the Shuttle Bus 555 from Circular Quay and it\u2019s even free of charge. Get off at Haystreet and after about a 2 minute walk you arrive at the famous China Gate in Chinatown. However, those who prefer the home shopping market can be sure to find everything they are looking for. It is a store that sells a variety of goods. The ground floor is the cinema and games area. In the other two floors there are very many reputable clothing stores that will catch your eye. On the 3rd floor is a big food court and two other restaurants. We prefered to eat at the food court, because the opportunities you have are amazing: From Korean to Japanese and Chinese food and more.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Mardi Gras in Sydney<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.international-student-office.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Chinatown.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-30767\" src=\"https:\/\/www.international-student-office.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Chinatown-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"Chinatown\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.international-student-office.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Chinatown-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.international-student-office.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Chinatown.jpg 612w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nFurthermore, on 1st March was Mardi Gras Festival on Oxford Street. This event was similar to that of Carnival in Rio de Janeiro. It is unique to Australia and the kind of event you would never witness in Germany. You can go by bus to Oxford Street and catch one at the Circular Quay with the Number 333. But the most incredible thing this year was the Future Festival, which you have to attend if you\u2019re in Sydney.<br \/>\nI would definitely advise you not to visit to all these places in just one day. Take your time. This way it gives you plenty of time to visit all of the places worth seeing. For example, we visited several different places as a group every weekend and made sure it was always a different part of Sydney<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Beautiful Sydney Report by Ipek T.
