It rained heavily in Sydney. Even the tour guide said that such strong winds and heavy rains are rare in Sydney. Generally, it rains at night and the sky is blue and white during the day. You are lucky to enjoy the scenery of Sydney in the rain. Mrs. Macaulay's Chair is a stone chair carved by craftsmen in memory of Mrs. Macaulay. From here you can see the Sydney Opera House and the Harbour Bridge.

Just as I was about to go down to see Mrs. Macquarie's Chair, a sudden rainstorm hit and I was soaked all over. I could only look at the Sydney Opera House and the Harbour Bridge from a distance. The Sydney Opera House and the Harbour Bridge in the rain felt like they were covered with a layer of gauze. There were also Australian warships moored by the harbor, because Sydney Harbour is a rare deep-water port in the city that can berth large warships.

For example, the large US aircraft carrier moors at Sydney Harbour. The second stop: Sydney St. Mary's Cathedral. St. Mary's Cathedral was built in the 19th century. The church is very large. The windows look dark from the outside, but when you go inside, you will see exquisite glass paintings on the windows with bright colors, giving people a warm and holy feeling. The top structure of the church is also very special.

It looks ancient and full of mysterious atmosphere. The solemn Cathedral of Santa Maria has a peaceful atmosphere, which is not affected by the noise outside. The appearance of the church is very British style. Outside the church, it is drizzling. The yellow leaves are full of autumn flavor. Here is a fashion magazine sign.

The interior of St. Mary's Cathedral, the long arcade is very beautiful. The interior of St. Mary's Cathedral is the forbidden area of ​​the cathedral, and tourists are prohibited from entering. Is there the Da Vinci Code down there? Just pray and bless this trip to be safe and happy. Sydney TV Tower in the rain. The third stop: visit the Sydney Opera House and the Harbour Bridge.

Visit Port Jackson, the streets of Pitt Street and Gees Street in the center of Sydney. All the major shopping malls in Sydney are concentrated on this street. Many old buildings still have a strong European style. Many new buildings are very creative. The third stop of Sydney's street graffiti: Sydney Opera House, located in the northern part of Sydney city.

It is a water complex with a theatre and halls under a shell-shaped roof. Designed by Danish architect Jorn Utzon, it took 14 years and cost 12 million Australian dollars to complete and open. Many places inside the opera house are inlaid with glass imported from France. It is equipped with unique building materials in Australia.

Its internal structure is modeled after Mayan culture and Aztec temples. The glass outside is double-layer glass made in France - plain and topaz, with 700 sizes and 2,000 pieces. Sydney Opera House is a world-renowned art performance venue, hosting about 2,400 events each year.

Arriving at the Sydney Opera House, it feels like a big eye. Sydney Harbour Bridge, where every New Year's Eve fireworks show is held. Sydney Harbour Bridge is known as the world's first single-arch bridge and a representative building of early Sydney. The bridge was designed in 1857 and completed in 1932. It is an important bridge connecting the north and south banks of the harbor.

Jackson Bay, Sydney, haha! The prayer worked, the weather suddenly turned good, with blue sky and white clouds, and I was in a good mood at the moment. The Sydney Harbour Bridge in the distance. People are climbing the bridge, the price is not cheap, about 200 Australian dollars per person, most of the climbers are lovers, and love locks will be provided for each couple as a souvenir. The leisure street below the Sydney Opera House.

There is a stove in each pillar for tourists to keep warm. But it's 20 degrees outside, it seems that Australians are quite afraid of cold. Delicious food. Inside the Sydney Opera House, these wooden strips are all produced in the Blue Mountains Opera House outside Sydney. Looking at the Jackson Bay Opera House, the scenery is charming. Outside the opera house lobby, prepare to go in for a visit, because it is forbidden to take pictures inside.

So I can only go here. The opera house hall is composed of two floors, the chairs are red, and it feels similar to the Sihai City Grand Theater. The top is made up of countless long iron bars. It can be raised and lowered freely to produce different musical effects! For example, it will be raised higher for pop concerts and lowered for classical music! Haha!

Yunluo listened to the explanation of the inside staff of the opera house! Before leaving the opera house, go to the store in the theater to buy some souvenirs! When I came out, I saw the thousand-year-old tree demon! It must be due to the weather and climate. The trees in Australia grow very well and very tall. The fourth stop: Rose Bay passed through the eastern suburbs of Sydney. The eastern suburbs are all rich areas, and the buildings are stacked and very beautiful.

Many wealthy Chinese also live in luxury homes in the eastern district of this area. The fourth stop: Rose Bay is the most concentrated place for various exhibitions, cultural performances and celebrations in Sydney. There are swaying palm trees and green grass in the bay, and children playing in the playground. People relax and chat in the open-air cafes, and there are many pools and fountains in the harbor.

There are also large video game facilities, a super-large screen cinema, a bustling shopping mall, and wonderful performances by street performers. The logo of the 2000 Olympic Games also stands here. During every grand festival, it is also a good place to watch fireworks. Sydney Rose Bay is full of private yachts.

In Australia, the way to judge who is rich is not by the car, but by whether you can afford a yacht! The annual maintenance fee of a yacht is very expensive, so being able to buy one may not necessarily be able to maintain it! Ha! Thinking about life The weather is a bit gloomy again, and the countless seagulls and yachts are very impressive. The fifth stop: Bondi Beach (surfer's paradise) Bondi Beach (bondibeach).

The name comes from the aboriginal language bondi, which means the sound of waves hitting the shore. Bondi Beach (pronounced: 'bond-eye' along with sounds like "bond") is 1 kilometer long. Although it is just a beach town, it is the oldest surfing center in Australia and the traditional surfing lifesaving training base in Australia.

The wind and waves are so strong that people can't stand! Look at Yunluo, he is so good at posing in the strong wind. Momo Bear shut up! Momo Bear helps Yunluo take pictures. The wind and waves seem to be getting stronger and stronger! 88 is the beautiful Bondi Beach, but it's a pity that the wind and waves are too strong and surfing is prohibited today. No surfers can be seen. The trip to Bondi Beach ends.

Today's itinerary is almost over. After dinner, there is a light show. It is said that Sydney only has one light show every year. What a coincidence! Sydney light show! The super cute antique Volkswagen van parked in front of the hotel at night. You can also see the Great Wall Motors of Yunluo Country in Australia. Drink a glass of Australian milk before going to bed. It tastes very good!

Drinking milk in Australia is cheaper than drinking mineral water! It is indeed a super happy farm country! It is really unbearable! After taking the night view photos of the first stop, it started to rain heavily! I quickly escaped back to the car and went back to the hotel to rest. I felt very tired today because I arrived in Sydney in the morning. I went back to the hotel to have a good sleep and have enough energy to play in the Blue Mountains tomorrow!

88, see you tomorrow! I had a good sleep last night, because the temperature difference between morning and night is big in Australia in winter. The hotel also turned on the heating at night. Australia usually has very late working hours, so Yunluo and An Chuyu set off at 9:30 this morning and slept until 8:30. Yunluo slept for 11 hours to get enough energy, eat breakfast and prepare for Sydney.

The first day, the hotel global chain holidayinn was good and comfortable hotel breakfast, Australian dairy products are really good. I drank a glass of milk and a can of yogurt and set off to the second day's attractions in Australia.

《Sydney Blue Mountains Forest Park》 Blue Mountains National Park blue mountains national park There are large areas of virgin jungle and subtropical rainforest in the Blue Mountains National Park, among which eucalyptus is the most famous. Eucalyptus is the national tree of Australia, with more than 500 species. It is the only food for koalas, a precious animal in Australia.

When you step into the picturesque primeval forest national park, the air is filled with the fragrance of eucalyptus trees, giving you a feeling of returning to nature in a paradise. Blue Mountains National Park is located on a plateau hill ranging from 100 meters to 1,300 meters above sea level. The special geographical and climatic environment has nurtured a wide variety of flora and fauna.

In addition, according to historical records, about 16,000 years ago, the geology here was actively changing due to volcanic eruptions, and then after years of wind and rain erosion, Yunluo and An Chuyu can see all kinds of strange rocks and peaks today. There are more than 400 species of animals and plants distributed here, fully demonstrating the trajectory of Australia's natural ecological evolution history.

In people's minds, the primeval forest national park must be uninhabited, but in fact, there are as many as 80,000 residents living in the Blue Mountains National Park. Distributed in 7 large and small villages and towns, humans and nature, primitive and civilization, can coexist harmoniously for a long time, which is rare in the world cultural heritage.

The Blue Mountain emits a faint blue light under the optical effect of the eucalyptus tree. From a distance, the entire Blue Mountain looks like it is covered with a blue coat. The eucalyptus tree has another characteristic that sounds scary. In order to compete with other trees for living space, it is willing to sacrifice itself and other plants to death. When it encounters a crisis of living space,

It secretes an oil that burns when exposed to high temperatures, causing forest fires. Many forest fires in Australia are caused by eucalyptus trees. It burns itself and other competing plants, and it will grow seeds again after the fire is extinguished and be reborn! The Australian government generally does not affect the safety of residents.

No artificial firefighting will be adopted, and the balance of nature will not be disrupted! Eucalyptus Three Sisters Rock, according to legend, a long time ago there were three beautiful sisters named "Mi Aini", "Wenla" and "Gannidu". These three sisters were born in the Katoomba tribe. Unfortunately, the three of them fell in love with three brothers of the Nepean tribe at the foot of the mountain at the same time.

This was against the rules of the tribes, and was not approved by their fathers. Later, their love affair triggered a war between the two tribes. At that time, a wizard turned the three sisters into stone in order to protect them from the threat of war. However, the wizard died in the war, leaving the Three Sisters Rock to guard the valley. Therefore, the Three Sisters Rock became the most famous attraction in the Blue Mountains.

Take a break and take a selfie. The steam clock on the bus where Yunluo and An first met. The clock in Australia rings every 15 minutes. Because Australia has abundant material resources and people are lazy, it reminds every Australian to work hard. Leaving the Blue Mountains and returning to Sydney city, we saw an antique racing car on the way to visit Sydney Darling Harbour!

It was cool to dine at the Veterans Club. The medals on the wall commemorate the Australian soldiers who died for their country in World War II! The anti-aircraft guns at the entrance of the Veterans Club, this one is very popular with Momo Bear! Arrived at the second stop of the day, Darling Harbour. It is a very happy and romantic thing to walk hand in hand with your lover at Darling Harbour.

We have basically finished visiting all the attractions in Sydney Harbour. After dinner, we went to bed early because we have to catch a flight tomorrow morning to Australia's holiday resort, Gold Coast and the beautiful Brisbane. We had dinner at the Sydney Fox Film Studios, which houses the Sydney Film and Television University and many cultural and creative works. In a blink of an eye, the third day's itinerary is coming to an end.

The two-day trip to Sydney is about to end. My biggest feeling about this largest city in the southern hemisphere is that Sydney is a young and vibrant city. The planning of the entire city is very three-dimensional, because Sydney is surrounded by the sea and the inner harbor has many stocks. It adds a lot of romantic elements and gives people a sense of happiness living in this city.

I felt like I fell in love with her as soon as I arrived, ha! Rest! Friends, see you tomorrow at Gold Coast, Sydney Airport, good morning! This morning, the 7:45 flight to Gold Coast took about 40 minutes to arrive at Sydney Domestic Airport. Sydney has three airports, divided into international and domestic airports. Check-in Australia is compared to international arrival.

The customs inspection at the domestic airport is very relaxed. You can get water and other things on board. Yunluo and An Chuyu's plane is already waiting for them. In Australia, most airlines are virgin australia, which is Virgin Australia in Chinese (yes, it is the Australian airline under the British Virgin Airlines). Tea and snacks are provided on the plane. Is the service good?

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Why is the cockpit door of the plane not closed? It's too convenient! It seems that Australia has a pretty good security situation. After a 1.5-hour flight, we finally arrived at another big state in Australia, the Sunshine City (Gold Coast) of Queensland. Each area of ​​the Gold Coast is made up of small islands, which is very beautiful! Arriving at the Gold Coast Airport, the sky is blue, worthy of being the Sunshine City for 300 days out of 365 days.

It was a nice day. The first thing I saw when I arrived at the airport was the sculpture of the Australian national treasure koala. In Australia, only in Queensland can you legally hug a koala! I saw a strange bird outside the airport. It had a very long beak and looked very interesting and curious! But I will see it often in the next two-day trip to Queensland! First stop.

Gold Coast On the way to Gold Coast, you can already feel the enthusiasm of the Sunshine City. In Gold Coast, the most popular entertainment activities are swimming and golf. Have you seen the super cute yellow golf balls to welcome you? The cute red pickup trucks in Gold Coast all have English words "Sunshine", representing the Sunshine City, Australia.

The Gold Coast is located in the middle of the east coast of Australia, south of Brisbane. It consists of a 42-kilometer-long stretch of more than 10 high-quality beaches, named after the golden color of the beach. The climate is pleasant, the sunshine is abundant, the waves are dangerous and fierce, and it is suitable for surfing and water skiing. It is a surfing paradise and a key tourist resort in Queensland.

Arriving at Gold Coast, handsome men and beautiful women were playing beach volleyball. The bright sunshine and soft white fine sand made it very comfortable to step on. The Gold Coast coastline was a straight line, and high-rise hotels stood behind the beach, which was quite similar to Sanya in China and Hawaii in the United States! There was a market on the beach. Foreigners really liked the weekend market, where they could eat, drink and listen to music.

Kill time listening to country music in the Gold Coast city center. There are many amateur singers in the streets and alleys of the Gold Coast. They all sing very well. Go shopping in the nearby supermarket. Australia's dairy products are world-class and very cheap. A bucket of milk only costs 3 or 4 Australian dollars. The taste is very strong. Yunluo's favorite ice cream!

You have to try the Australian yogurt, which is very pure and better than the old yogurt that Yunluo and An Chuyu had. We went to Brisbane, our second stop today. There are golf courses on both sides of the road. Golf is free in Australia. After a 1.5-hour drive, we arrived in Brisbane. The city is beautiful!

Inland rivers and green spaces! Brisbane is the capital of Queensland, Australia, located in the northeast of mainland Australia, bordering the Sunshine Coast to the north and the international tourist destination Gold Coast to the south. The metropolitan area has a population of over 2.15 million. It is the third most populous city in Australia, second only to Sydney and Melbourne.

Brisbane also hosted the World Expo in 1988, with 52 countries and regions participating. It was the largest expo in the Southern Hemisphere. Brisbane (Story Bridge) "Story Bridge" is the name of a bridge. Because its designer was named "story", it was later named after it. The Chinese name is "Story Bridge".

In fact, there is no story about it. The reason why Story Bridge is famous is mainly because Story later designed the more famous Sydney Bridge. The red church opposite the Brisbane City Hall in the center of Brisbane was built in 1930.

Built with the unique brown sandstone and wood of Queensland, it is the largest and most magnificent town hall in Australia. It is also a typical neoclassical building. The tall and majestic columns in the foyer remind you of the ancient Greek temples. It is a very valuable historical asset.

It is called "million pound town hall". Brisbane City Hall The next attraction of Brisbane City Hall is the human-powered tricycle at the entrance of Brisbane South Bank Park. Haha! The driver plays rock songs while riding. South Bank Park is the first choice for visiting Brisbane and the best place to enjoy Brisbane's subtropical climate.

From the clear water of Kodak artificial beach to the shady lawn in the lush garden, the scenery changes with every step, and it is beautiful. There are many trees in the park, and the green is pleasing to the eyes, the quietness is refreshing, and the leisurely feeling is understood. Outside the park are the buildings left over from the 1988 Brisbane World Expo. Buy a New Zealand ice cream at the artificial beach of South Bank Park.

New Zealand's dairy products are purer than Australia's! They taste good and have a strong creamy flavor! Great! The sky is clear and the artificial beach is beautiful. Most parks in Australia are open to the public for free! Want to eat? This is the strange bird I saw when I left the Gold Coast Airport!

Ha, I later found out that it was the famous garbage crane in Australia, like the stray cats that Yunluo and Anchu met here, whose scientific name is the Australian white stork! Bikini beauties, Australians love to bask in the sun, they think bronze skin is healthy. The dessert stand in the park is said to be famous for its crispy candy bars topped with cream and chocolate. There are cafes and bars on both sides of the park. (To be continued..)
