Discover Details:
Sydney Opera House

My advice is to book tickets for any shows in advance. I waited too long and missed out on a great performance because it sold out.

I think the best way to explore is to join a guided tour—it gives you all the insider stories about the building's history and architecture!

Planning to take photos? I recommend visiting around sunset. The lighting makes the structure look even more magical!

If you want to save some bucks, try bringing your own snacks for the tour. The café prices are a bit steep!
Sydney Harbour Bridge
Queen Victoria Building
Museum of Contemporary Art

Plan your visit for a Wednesday or Thursday afternoon; it’s less crowded then, and you'll have more room to appreciate the art.

If you're looking for souvenirs, skip the museum shop and check out local art markets nearby; you might snag a unique piece for your home.
The Hordern Pavilion
Art Gallery of New South Wales

I think spending some time in the contemporary section is a must! It offers such cool pieces, and you can really feel the vibe of modern Australia.

Hit up the cafe for lunch—they have some great affordable options. I was surprised how reasonable the prices were for a gallery cafe!
Capitol Theatre
St Mary's Cathedral
I recommend looking for free entry days or any community events when you visit. You can stumble upon live music or local art displays, which adds a fun vibe to the experience.
