Trip to Sydney, Australia 🇦🇺

It was a Christmas trip to Sydney, Australia with my colleague. We visited the iconic Sydney Opera House early in the morning ⛅️ to catch the soft golden light illuminating its unique sails. Exploring Circular Quay, we were surrounded by breathtaking harbor views. I’d recommend visiting at sunrise for fewer crowds and stunning reflections on the water 💦 📍Bennelong Point, Sydney NSW 2000, Australia We then climbed up the Pylon Lookout and explored its hidden history exhibits before marveling at panoramic views of the harbor. The late afternoon lighting made our photos truly magical 📸 recommend going just before sunset to capture both daylight and evening lights ✨ 📍Sydney Harbour Bridge, Cumberland St, The Rocks NSW 2000, Australia We also explored this lush oasis in the heart of the city and found amazing photo spots like Mrs. Macquarie’s Chair 🪑 with the Opera House and Harbour Bridge perfectly framed. The mid-morning light worked wonderfully for vibrant greenery and clear skies ⛅️ 📍Mrs. Macquaries Rd, Sydney NSW 2000, Australia Exploring The Rocks during Christmas was a festive treat. We snapped photos 📸 of beautifully lit stalls, historic cobblestone streets, and holiday decorations. Visit between 6 PM and 9 PM 🌙 to enjoy the best ambiance. 📍Playfair St, George St & Jack Mundey Place, The Rocks NSW 2000, Australia We took a ferry to Watsons Bay and explored the scenic coastal trails to Hornby Lighthouse ✨ The lighthouse, set against a backdrop of cliffs and ocean, was a fantastic spot for photos 📸 I’d recommend going in the late afternoon for softer light and a peaceful vibes 😍 📍Watsons Bay, NSW 2030, Australia #holiday #vacation #travel
