Sydney, Australia is the ideal honeymoon City. With
an equable climate all year round, free from the troubles of
other world destinations it is the target for honeymoon couples
from all over the world.
Sydney has, perhaps, the most
beautiful harbor in the world and it seems that there are water
views wherever you look.
Perhaps the number one most recognizable landmark in all of
Australia is the Sydney Opera House.
This building isn't one of
the oldest landmarks in the world, but it is one of the most
notable.
The information on the Sydney Opera House may surprise
you in that this building has only been in existence since 1973.
When compared with landmarks like the Eiffel Tower or the Statue
of Liberty it seems very young indeed.
The building is located at Bennelong Point on the harbour. Here
you will also see the breathtaking Sydney Harbour Bridge,
another top tourist attraction.
The building was designed not by
an Australian, but a Danish architect named Jorn Utzon.
Utzon
designed the opera house to resemble a sailing ship, which fits
perfectly with its position on the crystalline blue waters of
the Sydney Harbour.
The first performance that took place in the
building was War and Peace by the Australian Opera. Speaking of
the Australian Opera, they are only one of the many groups that
call the opera house their home base. Others include the
Australian Ballet and Bell Shakespeare Company.
There are always fabulous events going on at the opera house.
For example, right now some exhibitions include Le Grand Cirque,
Tales from the Vienna Woods and The Government Inspector. The
opera house hosts thousands of events each year and gives
hundreds of thousands of guided tours. If you want the full
experience, it is recommended that you not only take in some
events at the opera house but also sign up for a guided tour
which takes around two hours. On the tour you will get to see
behind the scenes and learn more about the history and heritage
of this stunning facility.
There are many hotels for honeymoon couples which provide
romantic suites overlooking the harbor with views of the Opera House
and Harbor Bridge.
The harbor is alive with all kinds of sailing
and motor craft.
