Sydney's Best Free Attraction 🌉

Walking across the Sydney Harbour Bridge is definitely tops my list of free things-to-do in Sydney. I started my ascent up the bridge at Cumberland Street (near the cross section of Argyle Street and Cumberland Street), where I took the lift up to a ramp that led to the pedestrian walkway of the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge. As I walked up, the city skyline unfolded before me like a breathtaking painting. The glistening waters of the harbor sparkled below, while ferries glided gracefully beneath us. The iconic Opera House stood proudly in the distance, its white sails contrasting against the deep blue sky. The Sydney skyline stretched out in all directions, a vibrant mosaic of buildings and green spaces. It was a moment of pure awe and wonder. #WinHKFlight #winhkflight I really want to visit Hong Kong because it is such a bustling metropolis, a city that doesn't sleeps! I'm eager to see the iconic skyline from Tsim Sha Tsui Promenade, both in the day and at night, and marvel at the city's modern architecture. Exploring Ocean Park and riding the thrilling roller coasters would be a blast too!

Beautiful Stunning Sydney Harbour Bridge

#winhkflight 📍Sydney Harbour Bridge Visited Sydney and of course Sydney Harbour Bridge is one of the most iconic architecture to marvel while in Sydney! The structure, the arches is so amazing, pretty and stunning! You can also arrange and pay to climb the bridge, we did not do that due to time limits but this activity sounds really fun for adventurous travellers! We walked around the area like Circular Quay, the harbour area, and had a different view points of the ever beautiful bridge. All of the angles are great and picture perfect! We spent the day strolling around and took a lot of pictures! Views are just simply breathtaking and mesmerising I don’t think I will ever get over it! I wish to travel to Hong Kong for their food!

Strolling around Harbour Bridge, Sydney

#vianasjourney #awesomepic Took a long walk around the Harbour Bridge after a nice drink around the Opera House Sydney. There were plenty of beautiful spot where you can stop and took beautiful pictures for instagram (especially from across the Opera House itself) There’s even a Museum of Contemporary Arts along the way where you can visit for free. Plenty of aesthetic cafe around for you to get drinks and pastries as well.

Sunny Sydney

Sydney is a favourite chill destination if you love exploring by foot. My friend and I started walking from Haymarket to the Darling Harbour, to Barangaroo. From there, we saw the most spectacular view of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, sat on the lawn to enjoy the summer breeze. We continued our walk to The Rocks, ending in Circular Quay viewing the best of harbours. #familytravel #newyearadventure #tripblazers #sydney

Night stroll at Sydney Harbour 🚶🌕

As the city winds down and you are feeling full from your dinner, what can you do in Sydney? Take a night stroll to the Sydney Opera House! If you visit it at night, you can see the ever changing light projection on the iconic sails of the opera house glow softly against the dark sky. It really casts a magical aura over the surroundings. As I strolled along the waterfront, the gentle sound of waves lapping against the shore provided a soothing backdrop to the twinkling lights of the city skyline. Every corner I turned revealed a new perspective of this architectural marvel. Looking across the harbour, you will also be able to catch the light projections on the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge as well. Pausing to take in the view, I felt a sense of relaxation wash over me, as if the world had slowed down just for that moment. It was a fantastic chance to appreciate the grandeur of one of the Sydney’s most famous landmarks in the cool autumn night.

I want to travel to Hong Kong to visit the island of Cheung Chau, take a hike on the Dragon’s Back, enjoy a sip of Vita Lemon Tea and...so much more!

#2023travelwish An unforgettable moment is exploring sydney harbour for the first time, we were there in November and the weather was just perfect.

Top Vantage Points: Sydney Harbour Bridge 📸

I spent a few days in Sydney and I loved it! The Harbour Bridge is one of the main attractions and I really enjoyed traveling to different locations around the city to photograph it against different backdrops. Here were my favorite locations: 1️⃣ Observatory Hill Rotunda - In my opinion this is the best viewpoint in Sydney! The best part is that it is walking distance to the Sydney CBD! 2️⃣ Blues Point Reserve - Another good viewpoint but you’ll need to take public transport. Take either the T1 or T9 train 🚇 to North Sydney and then walk for about 20 minutes down Blue Points Road. Or you can take the ferry ⛴️ from Circular Quay to McMahon’s Point! 3️⃣ Mrs Macquaries Point - Another popular spot near Sydney’s Botanical Gardens 🪴 After soaking up the skyline it’s a nice place to take a walk and admire the variety of trees and flowers on display! 4️⃣ Sydney Harbor Bridge - The walk across the bridge is worth it. Take some really cool pictures of the bridge as well as the city below. Have fun exploring Sydney! 📸 #city #explore #travel #historicallandmarks #trip #instatravel #australia #sydney #travelinspiration #city #citywalk

3 tips to enjoy Sydney in Summery November

First. Use public transport to visit as many places as you like - with your credit card or an Opal card you see heaps via train, buses and ferry for an affordable price. It's efficient. But always read up as trains may not operational on weekends or there are delays announced. Use a travel app. Second. Walk around and enjoy the sights and sounds. At the city center, there are views to enjoy, restaurants to savor Went to a Thai restaurant that served delightful comfort Thai food dishes. A great end to a day full of meetings and healthy sandwich options for lunch. Third. Best time for open markets that are scheduled on Saturday at The Rocks, North Sydney and Kirribilli. Crafts, clothes, plants, flowers and a wide array of choices of food could make you spend an hour or two at the market. Mingle with the locals, sip a long black or cane juice.Just enjoy the experience. Don't forget to bring your ecobag, sunnies, aubvlock, hat or umbrella. That weekend at the market was wet and then the sun came up.
