Sydney Harbour, Opera House and Famous Sydney Harbour Bridge. Affordable Cruises Tours Photo of the Day.
Sydney Harbour has to be one of the most beautiful harbours in the world. The Sydney Opera House started in 1956, finally completed in 1973. The once controversial masterpiece created by Denmark's Jorn Utzon and opened by Queen Elizabeth was made part of UNESCO's World Heritage list in 2007. Australians are rightly proud of this architectural landmark. The Sydney Harbour Bridge affectionately known as the Coat hanger was started in 1932 and took 6 years to build. It is the world’s largest but not longest steel arch bridge and is held together by approximately 6,000,000 hand driven rivets. Not sure who had the job of counting them. If we can help you get to Sydney please let us know. This one is for all my friends Down Under. |
