How to Explore Famous Attractions with Holidays to Sydney

by Daisy Wilkinson Travel Guides

Located on Australia's eastern coast, Sydney was founded as a penal colony in the late 18th century, when Captain Arthur Phillip arrived in this region along with a few convicts. It got incorporated as the Municipal Council of Sydney in the year 1842, becoming the first city in the country. In the mid-19th century, the transportation of convicts came to an end and the discovery of gold in this part of the world resulted in thousands of people flocking to the city. Sydney soon got transformed into one of the major economic and cultural centres in the years that followed. Today it is a popular tourist destination and the residents of this city call themselves 'Sidneysiders'.
