    New South Wales is vast and varied, with alpine areas that blossom with summery wildflowers and desolate outback extremes haunted by colonial architecture and aeons-old Aboriginal history. Then there are beaches blessed with year-round sun, vast tracts of secluded bush and fascinating wildlife. And, of course, Sydney.

    • Sydney Tower, Sky Walk & Oz Trek
      Head for the heights in Sydney by taking one of the high-speed elevators up the Sydney Tower (also known as both Centrepoint and the AMP Tower). The tower's 360° Observation Deck is 250 metres (820 feet) above the ground, with fantastic views across the city.
    • IMAX Cinema Darling Harbour
      Situated right on the waterfront of fashionable Darling Harbour, Sydney's IMAX theatre has one of the biggest screens in the world and shows films on the hour, every hour.
    • Imperial Hotel
      Camp classic The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert, was filmed at the Imperial Hotel in October 1994, so no prizes for guessing its speciality. It's open seven nights a week, but the most popular nights are Friday and Saturday, which feature a special "Priscilla" drag show throughout the night.
    • UN House
      Following on from the reputation of DCM Saturdays, UN House - same venue, different name - delivers on its promise for "dirty, funkin', booty shakin' house" every Saturday.
    • Bondi Beach
      Perhaps the most famous beach in the world, Bondi Beach is just one of the many spectacular beaches in the extraordinary Sydney Harbour, which the settlement's first governor Arthur Phillip described as "the finest harbour in the world, in which a thousand sail of the line may ride in the most perfect security."
