Sydney Sights

View all »

Sydney is a giant, stretching nearly 97 km (60 mi) from top to bottom and about 55 km (34 mi) across. The harbor divides the city into northern and southern halves, with most of the headline attractions on the south shore. Most tourists spend their time on the harbor's south side, within an area bounded by Chinatown in the south, Harbour Bridge in the north, Darling Harbour to the west, and the beaches and coastline to the east. North of Harbour Bridge lie the important commercial center of North Sydney and leafy but somewhat bland suburbs. Ocean beaches, Taronga Zoo, Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park, and great shopping in the village of Mosman are the most likely reasons to venture north of the harbor. More »
