While many Australian's will scoff when they read this, believing Australia has many better attractions, the reason Sydney(the capital city of New South Wales) has made the list is because it is such an iconic feature of Australia.
For those of you have made a flight from potentially the other side of the world, if you come and don't see Sydney, it is a bit like going to Germany and not drinking a beer, or to England and not seeing London, or America and not trying a hot dog.
There is plenty to see and do in Sydney apart from the well know attractions of the Harbour Bridge, the Opera House, and Bondi/Manly beaches.
Sydney is host to the great Taronga Zoo, there are festivals on all year long, it is steeped in Australian pioneering history, and much more.
