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.

The Rocks is one of the most vibrant areas in Sydney. Its name comes from the early days of the colony, when most buildings were made of local sandstone. This historic area was once a gathering place for sailors, merchants, criminals, and prostitutes, and was also the site of the outbreak of the bubonic plague in 1900 that claimed the lives of 100 people. In the 1920s, many streets were destroyed to build the southern transportation channel Sydney Harbour Bridge. It was not until the community reconstruction of the 1970s that this area became a popular tourist destination. The Rocks has many attractions worth visiting, such as Nurses Walk and Suez Canal, ancient warehouses such as Chui Bell Bay, and Esjen Park under Sydney Harbor Bridge. George Street, the main street of The Rocks, is Australia's first street, with many historic streets, artistic cafes, craft shops, restaurants, and art galleries. There are also markets to visit on weekends, but prices are not very cheap. It should be noted that some vendors do not allow photography, so photography enthusiasts should pay attention.

The Blue Mountains National Park is located on a plateau between 100 and 1300 meters above sea level, with vast areas of pristine and subtropical rainforest, with eucalyptus trees being the most famous and the only food for Australia's precious animal, the koala. Walking into this picturesque primitive forest national park, one can inhale the fragrance of eucalyptus trees and feel as though they are returning to an idyllic paradise.
According to studies, around 16,000 years ago, volcanic eruptions led to geological changes that made the area active, and years of erosion caused various bizarre rock formations and peaks. The Blue Mountains National Park has over 400 species of plants and animals, fully demonstrating the trajectory of Australia's natural ecological evolution. What's even more valuable is that humans and nature harmoniously coexist in this primitive forest national park, with 80,000 residents scattered across seven towns, forming a unique landscape.
Located 100 kilometers west of Sydney, the Blue Mountains National Park is one of the world's natural heritage sites, featuring geological formations similar to the Grand Canyon in the United States. The largest is the Blue Mountains National Park, with Yellow Falls, lookout platforms, Echo Point, and other attractions being some representatives of the area. Don't miss the opportunity to see the Katoomba Falls and Scenic World theme park, as well as the chance to observe the Blue Mountains from a high-altitude cable car station.

The Great Ocean Road is a travel route that stretches nearly 250 kilometers west of Melbourne, Australia. The route crosses through pristine beaches, picturesque towns, stunning mountains, and rainforests, making it an unforgettable journey filled with beautiful scenery and historic significance. The eastern portion of the Great Ocean Road winds through the Otway Mountains, where lush forests and farmland thrive. Traveling along the coast from Melbourne to the endpoint takes approximately four hours, while taking an inland highway can save you over an hour, but you'll miss out on many breathtaking coastal views. Towns along the way include Geelong, Torquay, Apollo Bay, and Port Campbell. One of the most famous attractions along the route is the Twelve Apostles, but due to the high number of tourists, it's recommended that those driving stay overnight in Port Campbell and head there early in the morning to avoid crowds. You can also continue westward from Port Campbell to explore the town of Warrnambool and its many beautiful, unique sights that are less crowded. Our suggestion is to stay overnight in Warrnambool for a leisurely holiday, where you can find great deals like "a 300 square meter new villa with garage for only 700 yuan" and enjoy the comfort and tranquility.
