Sydney Taste List
Sydney Opera House—A must-visit iconic spot! The nighttime view is 🔥. Yachts lined up in Sydney Harbour with skyscraper lights reflecting on the water make for celebrity-level photos. Real talk though… if you plan to walk from the harbor to other attractions, get ready for a workout. This city is super active, and every step will tone your legs 😆.
Bondi Beach is everyone's favorite. The water is crystal clear! The weather is amazing, and every photo you take will be stunning ☀️. The people here have a unique, real vibe. You'll find colorful scenes everywhere—don't miss it!
For foodies, Sydney doesn't disappoint. Thai restaurants here are amazing... even better than in Bangkok! (Not exaggerating.) Som Tum here costs 400 AUD, grilled pork 500 AUD, and BBQ buffet over 900 AUD. It's pricey but worth it. You must try Sushi Hub—big, fresh, and absolutely the best 🤤. Ice cream lovers will also be delighted with quirky and unique ice cream shops. Prices start at 5-6 AUD, so indulge every day!
For accommodation, Hyde Park Inn at 271 Elizabeth St is a great choice. It's centrally located with a view of Hyde Park, spacious rooms, a fully equipped kitchen, and budget-friendly prices. Book through Trip.com for free breakfast. Solo travelers or backpackers can try hostels (though cleanliness and service might be hit or miss). For longer stays, Airbnb is a good option—around 8,000 AUD per week for privacy and a big kitchen.
Korean youth dominate Sydney, especially during Vivid Sydney, where it's like a party every night. The city is super safe with 24/7 police presence. If you're not into walking, try Lime bikes or download an app to rent scooters and explore the city. Whether it's Bondi or another beach, you can switch up the vibe 🛴.
Sydney's nightlife is legit. Beer and wine prices are surprisingly affordable—10-20 AUD per bottle, sometimes cheaper than in Thailand. Try them all before heading back, and you'll leave with a buzz! 🍷
Must-visit landmarks in Sydney:
- Saint Mary’s Cathedral (St Marys Rd, Sydney NSW 2000): Open daily 6:30 AM–6:30 PM (Mon–Fri) / 6:30 AM–7:00 PM (Sat–Sun). Very accessible.
- Sydney Town Hall (483 George St, Sydney NSW 2000): Open Mon–Fri 8:00 AM–6:00 PM.
- Bondi Beach (NSW 2026): Open 24/7. Always a great vibe no matter the time.
For adventure seekers, don't miss Blue Mountains—breathtaking views worth every second! It's a bit of a train ride, but the experience is priceless. You'll take so many photos your phone might freeze. This view will make you understand why Sydney locals love nature so much.
TIPS:
- Late at night, Uber is safer, or try Didi, but don't dawdle—they won't wait and will charge you.
- Art lovers should visit the Art Gallery or Manly Beach by the sea—super chill.
- Solo female travelers, be cautious. Train stations can be crowded and intense, but not dangerous. However, there are some odd people around.
💸 Average cost per person—several thousand AUD, but worth it because Sydney offers a new vibe every day. This city takes food, activities, and stunning views seriously!

Sydney Town Hall is located on George Street, the busiest street in the center of Sydney, the capital of New South Wales, Australia. It is one of Sydney's landmark buildings. Together with the Queen Victoria Building on the north and St Andrew's Cathedral on the south, it forms a beautiful landscape of classical architecture on George Street and together they have become Australia's precious national historical heritage. Sydney Town Hall is not only one of Sydney's iconic buildings, but also a popular dating spot. Couples can often be seen strolling on the steps of the Town Hall. This Victorian-style building is famous for its magnificence, solemnity and elegance. As time goes by, it has added a sense of historical heaviness, like an elder quietly watching the people coming and going on the long street.
Sydney City Center Town Hall 😉 I didn't know it was a used building! You can always see busking going on nearby! #Australia #Sydney #TownHall
It is not only the largest neoclassical building and the most ornate architectural structure of the late 19th century, but also a historically significant and controversial building of its time. Built in 1880 as the first European cemetery in old Sydney, it is now home to the Sydney Mayor's Office and other council offices, a meeting place and public stage for Sydney people and visitors. It is a great place to learn about the history of this great city of Sydney.
Perhaps the third or fourth most famous attraction in Sydney, everyone knows where this place is. It was the center of many Australian historical events. Plus the train station is right below. The building itself has so much history and it is well worth seeing in the heart of the city on George Street.
The town hall of every city in foreign countries seems to be a historical building. This town hall was built in the 19th century. It is a Victorian building with a very grand appearance. We accidentally saw it when we got off the subway from the Town Hall, so we didn't go in to visit it, but just looked at it from the outside. There is a music hall inside that is open to tourists.
Next to QVB, there is a striking clock tower. The road is under construction now, so it's a bit messy. Because it's closed to traffic, I saw street performances twice, which were pretty good. There is also a nice cathedral next to it. QVB is also worth visiting.
Sydney Town Hall is an old building with a history of more than 100 years. It is a typical Victorian style building. The clock on the tall tower still rings throughout the old city of Sydney on the hour. You can visit part of the Town Hall, where you can learn a lot about Sydney's history. It is worth visiting.
