Here are ten suggestions for Australia tourist attractions that we have found to be fascinating, educational or just plain fun. Just in case you get this question the next time you play trivia: Australia is the sixth largest nation in the world. It’s smaller than Brazil and is the only continent nation that owns the entire continent. There are six states or territories in Australia: Northern Territory, Western Australia, South Australia, Victoria, Queensland and New South Wales.
Canberra Australia is the national capital of Australia, similar to Washington, D.C. in the U.S. Take in the history of this nation by visiting the National Gallery of Australia, the National Museum of Australia, the Australian War Memorial and the nation’s Parliament House.
Gold Coast Australia can be found in Queensland and is home of the Australian Outback Spectacular, a fantastic dinner theater. You’ll also want to check out Australia’s most favorite theme park; Dreamworld. To cool down spend the day at Wet ‘n’ Wild Water World.
Located in New South Wales, Sidney Australia is a cosmopolitan city with plenty to do. Visit Sydney Wildlife World to see and learn about Australia unique flora and fauna.
Ayers Rock Australia is a sacred landmark to the Uluru aborigines and is also the largest and most recognized monolith in the world. A visit will educate you about the role this large rock plays in the Dreamtime legend.
Adelaide Australia can be found in South Australia and offers many memorable attractions for visitors. While you’re there, visit the Adelaide Botanic Garden, the Aboriginal Art Gallery and the Adelaide Central Gallery. Take a winery tour of Aldinga Bay Winery, dine at the Aldgate Pump Hotel, and then head over to the Ambra Limoncello for a delicious after-dinner Italian lemon liqueur aperitif.
While you are in Albany Western Australia visit the historic whaling station, Whale World. There you’ll learn about the origin of the small city of less than 40,000 residents.
Probably the most interesting thing you can do when in Darwin Australia is to participate in Aquascene. Every day during high tide wild fish swarm toward shore where they allow people to hand feed them bread. Can you say “spoiled”?
On Tasmania, the island off the coast of Australia, one will find the city of Hobart. While there you’ll get a kick out of the Alpenrail Swiss Model Village and Railway. This is a large miniaturization Switzerland laid out in an area the size of two average houses.
Melbourne Australia is a modern city located in Victoria. Visitor there often visit the Aboriginal Heritage Walk where they get a real understanding of the history of this great city.
