    The Sydney Opera House's classic opera medley, booked through Trip.com, provided our family of four with an unforgettable evening of artistic delights. As a family experiencing opera for the first time, the experience was filled with delightful surprises. The family package was a great value, and our two children were fascinated by the opera house's sail-shaped design. Before the performance, we enjoyed a brief opera tour, where the staff thoughtfully explained key points, allowing the children to fully immerse themselves in the experience. The performance featured classic excerpts from "Turandot" and "Carmen," and the gorgeous costumes, stunning vocals, and Chinese subtitles completely immersed us in the magic of opera. The children loved the cheerful melodies of "The Magic Flute," while the adults were deeply moved by the soulful arias of "La Traviata." The performance ran for approximately 90 minutes, a perfect duration that kept the children engaged. During intermission, we enjoyed the opera house's special ice cream and took family photos against the backdrop of the harbor. This experience completely dispelled our stereotype of opera as something "cold," and Trip.com's seat recommendations were spot-on, with great views and affordable prices. By the time we left, the kids were already asking when we'd come back. It was undoubtedly the most culturally enriching evening of our trip to Sydney!

    Great views but it’s definitely a bit high price for the experience. The observation deck gives me a bird's-eye view of Sydney.

    Darling Harbour (Darling Harbor, also translated as Lovers Harbour) is located in the northwest of Sydney's central city center and is one of Sydney's most famous landmarks. It is 2 kilometers from Sydney Central Station (Central Station) and is connected to Sydney Chinatown (Sydney Chinatown) in Australia. Darling Harbour is a port terminal, green space and complex of buildings, not only Sydney's most colorful tourist and shopping malls, but also a venue for major conferences and celebrations. Darling Harbour is named after NSW's seventh Governor-General, NSW, NSW. The scenery of Darling Harbour is breathtaking. The sea is shining, and colorful boats travel between it, especially at sunset, the embers of the sunset are shining on the sea, and the golden glow is intertwined with the deep blue sea, creating a heady view. Modern high-rise buildings and historic buildings on both sides of the harbour are a perfect reflection of Sydney's unique charm. The hovering seagulls and fresh sea breeze are the best embellishments.

    I used big bus tour in different cities like London, Paris and KL. It is a great way to take a quick look of the city, relaxing and convenient. It was a good experience in Sydney, especially the blue route which will take you to the bondi beach. You can hop off and hop on anytime. I traveled alone this time, and the big bus tour is so worthy. For me, one day ticket is enough. I took the entire red route and blue route. The scenery in the blue route is so beautiful!!

    Circular Quay is the beating heart of Sydney – where the iconic Opera House and Harbour Bridge create a postcard-perfect panorama that never gets old. The energy is electric, with ferries gliding past, street performers adding flair, and world-class dining overlooking the water. Yes, it's touristy, but that's because it's genuinely spectacular. Whether you're grabbing a coffee at dawn or watching the city lights dance at night, this is Sydney at its most magical. Worth the hype!

    It is the largest church in Australia. Walking inside gives you a sense of peace and tranquility. You can come here to worship on weekends. The exterior architecture is very spectacular, and the stained glass paintings inside are very beautiful.

    We walked all the way to Mrs. Macaulay's Chair. The scenery along the way was beautiful and our trip was also very relaxing. We spread a mat near the Mrs. Macaulay Chair to take a rest, read a book, enjoy the sea breeze, and appreciate the two major landmarks of Sydney - the Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bridge. It was really a pleasant experience. I recommend this trip.

    The Queen Victoria Building in Sydney's central city is a grand 126-year-old building that was once the management site of the Sydney City Council and was later converted into a shopping centre. The building has shops, restaurants, cafes, boutiques and gift shops inside, with a large hollow atrium, domes and stairs that retain the originals of 100 years ago, showing the romantic classic art of the Victorian era. The building is Sydney's largest shopping centre, rectangular and occupies the entire block. It has four floors, one basement. It is surrounded by shops and in the middle is a shared space with light-transmitting arced vaults. The old commercial building is also advancing with the times, there are escalators in the middle of the mall, on one side, and the elevators at both ends have been running for more than 100 years, and they are still working normally. Looking up at the inner layer of the central large round vault, the square cut into a circular dome with a diameter of 20 meters, and the side is gorgeous colored carved glass and fine wood panelling. It is Christmas season, under this dome is a giant Christmas tree with a straight dome, and the branches are full of Christmas fruits, which is very powerful. Swarovski also has a transparent cylindrical glass display cabinet here, showing off the company's latest style of accessories, striking.

    To get to Sydney Luna Park, you can take a ferry from the Circular Pier, which is just one stop away. All the facilities in the park are single-item payment, you can buy whatever tickets you play, there are also combination packages, and now it is better to follow the trend with the squid game. In fact, Moon God Park is the main entrance is very characteristic, the length is quite scary.
