Berlitz Pocket Guide Sydney is the ultimate guide to this magnificent city. With 144 pages combining authoritative narrative detail and striking colour photography, the book contains two new features to entice visitors: a breakdown of Sydney's Top 10 Attractions and an itinerary for a Perfect Day in the city. An introduction to Sydney gives you background information on its people and outdoor lifestyle, followed by a brief history of Australia, including a quick-reference Historical Landmarks timeline. Throughout the guide, colour feature boxes brief you on points of historical and cultural interest. The main section of the book is the Where to Go chapter, which tells you everything you need to know about the city's many sights and attractions. Organised geographically, it begins in Sydney Harbour and covers each area of the city in turn, from Sydney Opera House on the western side of Circular Quay, through to Central Sydney, King Cross and Paddington in the Eastern Suburbs, and the hedonistic lifestyle on Sydney's glorious beaches. The chapter then covers the awe-inspiring Blue Mountains, where you can experience Australia's natural beauty, and the Hunter Valley wine region, before moving on to Australia's capital city, Canberra, just a short trip from Sydney. Throughout the chapter, number dots link the sights to the handy maps on the cover flaps. Next, the What to Do chapter is a snapshot of ways to spend your spare time, from scuba-diving and sailing through to spectator sports and live music, as well as nightlife and entertainment, shopping, and the best activities for children. There is also a Festival Calendar so you can check what's on while you're in the city. The Eating Out chapter covers the city's varied cuisine, describing what to eat, where to try it and what drinks are on offer. The chapter is followed by carefully chosen listings of the best Places to Eat in the city. The final sections of the guide are the A-Z Travel Tips - covering all the practical information you'll need, from budgeting to health to transport - and listings of Sydney's best hotels.
