New South Wales
Northern NSW • Sydney • Southern NSW
As Victorians, we are required to be anti-New South Welsh. They’re the worst.
The Three Sisters

The Three Sisters are one of those touristy places swarming with cameras.
It’s a rock formation in the Blue Mountains that is significant in the dreamtime legends of the local Aboriginal people.

Taronga Zoo
Website • Google Maps • Wikipedia
Sydney’s main Zoo.
It’s point of difference is that it has a chairlift, so that’s fun.
Also you can take a ferry from central Sydney to get there
Sydney Opera House
Website • Google Maps • Wikipedia
You surely know about this already, its only on EVERY single brochure for advertising Australia printed since forever.
I didn’t expect for the Opera House to be as close to the Bridge as it’s usually depicted but it actually is, which is pretty cool.
Anyway, it’s a big music venue. Not just purely for opera, because come on. It’s a very pretty building too.
Sydney Harbour Bridge
Website • Google Maps • Wikipedia
This overgrown coathanger is a well-known symbol of Australia, and is often lit up to showcase important events. It’s a very impressive piece of engineering.
You can climb up it, and we have heard rumours that it is possible to push a shopping trolley full of beer to the top.

Brad Says: This probably requires super human strength, and may be a Federal offence. |
Gundagai

Mainly famous for being on the road to Canberra and having a funny statue of a Dog on a Tuckerbox. It’s a memorial to the pioneers who opened up the area, or something like that?
ex-HMAS Ottway

Why would there be a Submarine hours from the coast? Who Knows!
Holsbrook thought it would be a good idea, which may give you a clue as to the intellect of the local residents.
Formerly a well-loved landmark on the road from Melbourne to Canberra, Holsbrook was the last town to be bypassed by the Freeway.
Ettamogah Pub

Some kind of comic featured the Ettamogah Pub long ago and this cashing in on their delicious intellectual property.
Lots of outback-related humour.
