Visit Brisbane during your Holidays to Australia

Radiant sun, muscle-stressing surf and variegated arts and culture primarily make up Australia holidays. To unearth its cities, each vying for attention, time would be a constraint for any traveller. Beware of the lists of endless outdoor activities and friendly people in every Australian city who are likely to retain any sociable person hooked to any of its cities.

Among all the cities in Australia, Brisbane is a big draw among British and it boasts thousands of British expats who have made this city their home. Many came to this city to seek sun and surf but have finally settled down to savour every bit of success and succour this city offered them.

For the tourists this city is packed with unlimited attractions starting with the Conrad Treasury Casino, a fabulous nineteenth century building, built of sandstone. This building was a Treasury before it was converted into a glitzy casino. The exterior of this building lacks the ostentation but it remains true to its spirit in taking money from the people.

Take a dip into the history of Brisbane by examining the grand Parliament House, inspired by the Louvre Museum in Paris. Along the banks of the Brisbane River there are pretty parks and beautiful walkways, comfortable play areas and peaceful picnic spots, refined restaurants and cafes and angling facilities.

South Bank village markets are popular for remarkable arts and crafts. The Mt Cootha Lookout and the leading heritage park, Botanic Gardens, offer vibrant views of greenery. For top-notch dining and drinking experience visit the vivacious Fortitude Valley and Chinatown.

South Bank is the best brewing ground for Brisbane's cultural, recreational and entertainment scene and do indulge in South Bank’s Breaka Beach - a look-alike of lagoon beach - proffering a sensation in connivance with the sun, sand and lifeguards.

Satiate your curiosity about the marine species exhibited at Queensland Museum including dinosaurs, snakes, snails, crabs and crocodiles. Visit the Australia Zoo to get in proximity with the wildlife species such as crocodiles, alligators, koalas, kangaroos, dingoes, foxes, otters and giant land tortoises.

Enjoy watching cricket at Gabba Cricket Ground and during your Australia holidays check with your guide when Queensland Bulls Cricket team would be playing. After watching a nail biting match, head for the vivacious Gold Coast, dotted with stunningly clean beaches, thumping nightlife, and sole-wearing shopping places.

No visit to a foreign city is complete without shopping, so shop till you drop at Queen Street Mall and if you are looking for bargains check out the surrounding suburbs of Paddington and Milton. Finally drown yourself in the musical scene of Brisbane at the Performing Arts Complex which holds fabulous musical performances.
