Tourism New South Wales
Sydney, the capital of New South Wales, has a near-perfect climate, beautiful harbour and famous Sydney Opera House. It’s rare for a world city to have such a sublime natural setting with national parks, golden beaches, parks and beautiful gardens within easy reach of the city centre.
There are many other spectacular regions of the State to explore from Sydney - by car, train or plane.. You can learn to surf, try hot-air ballooning, take a horse trek, go skiing, sample fine food and indulge your passions from wine to golf to spas.
You can also tick off some of the best World Heritage sites in Australia. Mungo National Park is part of the Willandra Lakes area in Outback NSW, Lord Howe Island is less than two hours' flight from Sydney or Brisbane, Gondwana Rainforests of Australia include more than 50 parks and reserves stretching from Barrington Tops to Mount Warning, and the Greater Blue Mountains Area is just 90 minutes' drive from Sydney.
