Australia's Dream Itinerary to Explore the Southern Hemisphere

During my annual leave, I finally visited Australia, a place I'd been longing to see. Before departing, I did a lot of research on the major popular cities in Eastern Australia: Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and Cairns. This trip covered culture ➕ natural landscapes ➕ beaches ➕ tropical scenery. I allocated two weeks for an in-depth exploration, and the experience was fantastic!
