The City
Sydney – Australia’s emerald city. If you want to hear some proper music after listening to the Army singing for a few weeks, head to the world’s most iconic opera house and catch a performance. Enjoy a ferry ride from Circular Quay to Manly Beach, offering stunning views of the Sydney Harbour Bridge. For a dose of wildlife, head to Taronga Zoo, home to a wide range of Australian and international animals.
The Stadium
The Sydney Cricket Ground is one of the world’s most famous cricketing venues. It’s capacity is 40,000 which is relatively small in Aussie terms but it means you are right on top of the pitch and the views are top notch.
Moore Park, Centennial Park and the surrounding areas boast some of the most picturesque cycleways in Sydney and is one of the most cycle-friendly public spaces in the city. Cyclists will find many bike racks in convenient locations along Driver Avenue in Moore Park and all pathways in Moore Park are shared footpaths/cycleways.
