The Sydney Opera House, a famous building in Australia, is located at the convenient Lang Jiao in the magnificent Sydney Harbor. Its white sculptural body is uniquely shaped, like a scattered shell, and is intertwined with the Sydney Harbour Bridge, celebrating together. Construction began in 1959 and lasted for 14 years before being completed in 1973 as a landmark building in Sydney. On June 28, 2007, the Sydney Opera House was named a world cultural heritage site by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization. Every year, thousands of tourists come to visit this building and experience its unique charm.
The Sydney Opera House consists of two large main halls, a small theater, a concert hall, and other ancillary facilities. The two halls are located within a unique competition sail-shaped structure, while the small theater is located within the lower base. The concert hall can accommodate up to 2,679 spectators and has the world's largest mechanical timber-linked organ, consisting of 10,500 wind pipes. The smaller of the two main halls is actually the opera house. Because the larger hall was originally built as an opera house, the stage of the smaller hall is relatively small, making it difficult to accommodate large orchestral performances. Therefore, the completed opera house stage was demolished and rebuilt.
Every day, the Sydney Opera House provides guided tours in Mandarin Chinese for 30 minutes, leading tourists to experience the wonders of this building. From any angle, the Sydney Opera House's design is breathtaking, like an art temple that stands out on its own.

Sydney Harbour Bridge is the world's first single-arch bridge and a iconic structure of Sydney. It was designed in 1857 and took 75 years to complete, finally opening in 1932. The bridge connects the north and south shores of the harbour, and serves as a gateway to the city's commercial and CBD areas. Together with the Sydney Opera House across the harbour, it is one of the city's most famous landmarks.
The construction of this bridge required a lot of effort and money. The southeastern tower features a tower top observation deck where visitors can drive, walk, or take a ferry under it. Climbing the Sydney Harbour Bridge is also an exciting experience. As the tallest steel arch bridge in the world and once the widest long-span bridge, it is one of Sydney's three iconic structures. The bridge is always stunning and beautiful, no matter the time or weather, and it is a symbol of the city.
Since 1815, people have proposed building a bridge to connect the two sides of the city, but nothing came of it. It wasn't until 1924 that the contract was awarded to the British company Dorman Long & Co. After three years of construction, the bridge officially opened on January 19, 1932. Due to poor safety performance during construction in the 1930s, 16 workers died. The opening celebration attracted hundreds of thousands of people. Over the next few decades, the bridge was renovated and upgraded several times, and continued to serve as a transportation hub linking the north shore to the eastern coast.

The Royal Botanic Garden is located behind the Opera House and is home to many unique Australian plants. During the colonial era, it was the site of the Governor-General's residence and later became the location of the New South Wales government. Along the garden's east side, the Queen Elizabeth Walk leads directly to Mrs. Macquarie's Point. Free guided walks are offered daily. The endpoint of the walkway is a platform known as "Mrs. Macquarie's Chair" that offers iconic views of the Sydney Harbour Bridge and Opera House. It is also a common sight in travel books.
