Vacation in Sydney & Canberra
|
|
The Sydney Opera House is located in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia (Bennelong Point in Sydney Harbour, close to the Sydney Harbour Bridge). It was made a UNESCO World Heritage Site on June 28, 2007[Wikipedia]. The Sydney Opera House is one of the world's most distinctive 20th century buildings, and one of the most famous performing arts venues in the world. It was among the 20 selected finalists in the 2007 New Seven Wonders of the World project. The building and its surroundings are one of the best known icons of Australia. As well as many touring theatre, ballet, and musical productions, the Opera House is the home of Opera Australia, the Sydney Theatre Company and the Sydney Symphony.
The Sydney Harbour Bridge is a steel arch bridge across Sydney Harbour that carries rail, vehicular, and pedestrian traffic between the Sydney central business district and the North Shore. The dramatic view of the bridge, the harbour, and the nearby Sydney Opera House is an iconic image of both Sydney and Australia. The bridge was designed and built by Dorman Long and Co Ltd, Middlesbrough, Teesside and was the city's tallest structure until 1967 [Wikipedia]. It is the world's widest long-span bridge and its tallest steel arch bridge, measuring 134 metres (429.6 ft) from top to water level.It is also the fourth-longest spanning-arch bridge in the world.

Stanthorpe, Queensland, Australia - Fruit picking and winery
|
|
Stanthorpe is located south west of Brisbane and known as Queensland's premier wine region, it boasts more than 45 wineries, vineyards and cellar doors. Stanthorpe has the reputation as being Queensland's coolest town, with some altitudes around the shire reaching 1000 metres above sea level. Frosty mornings and the odd snowfall during winter are not uncommon.
The high altitude and unique soil provide excellent growing conditions for not only grapes, but for stonefruit such as peaches, apricots and nectarines along with a variety of apples and berries. Stanthorpe is surrounded by unspoilt National Parks.
Apple picking was fun. Stanthorpe's apple is very crunchy and juicy...just for $25.00 per box
