澳大利亚联邦（英语：Commonwealth of Australia），简称“澳大利亚”（Australia）。其领土面积7692024平方公里，四面环海，是世界上唯一国土覆盖一整个大陆的国家，因此也称“澳洲”。拥有很多独特的动植物和自然景观的澳大利亚，是一个奉行多元文化的移民国家。
澳大利亚（Australia）一词，原意为“南方的大陆”，由拉丁文 terraaustralis （南方的土地）变化而来。欧洲人在17世纪发现这块大陆时，误以为是一块直通南极的陆地，故取名“澳大利亚”。 
澳大利亚原为澳大利亚土著的居住地。17世纪初，西班牙、葡萄牙和荷兰人先后抵此。1770年沦为英国殖民地，1901年组成澳大利亚联邦，成为英国的自治领。1931年成为英联邦内的独立国家。 
澳大利亚是一个高度发达的资本主义国家，首都为堪培拉。作为南半球经济最发达的国家和全球第12大经济体、全球第四大农产品出口国，其也是多种矿产出口量全球第一的国家，因此被称作“坐在矿车上的国家”。同时，澳大利亚也是世界上放养绵羊数量和出口羊毛最多的国家，也被称为“骑在羊背的国家”。澳大利亚人口高度都市化，近一半国民居住在悉尼和墨尔本两大城市，全国多个城市曾被评为世界上最适宜居住的地方之一。其也是一个体育强国，常年举办全球多项体育盛事。澳大利亚积极参与国际事务，是亚太经合组织的创始成员，也是联合国、20国集团、英联邦、太平洋安全保障条约、经济合作与发展组织及太平洋岛国论坛的成员。

悉尼歌剧院位于澳大利亚悉尼，是20世纪最具特色的建筑之一，也是世界著名的表演艺术中心，已成为悉尼市的标志性建筑。该歌剧院1973年正式落成，2007年6月28日被联合国教科文组织评为世界文化遗产，该剧院设计者为丹麦设计师约恩·乌松。悉尼歌剧院坐落在悉尼港的便利朗角（Bennelong Point），其特有的帆造型，加上悉尼港湾大桥，与周围景物相映成趣。 The Sydney opera house is located in Sydney, Australia, is one of the most distinctive architecture in the 20th century, is the world famous performing arts center, has become a landmark building in Sydney. Inaugurated in 1973, the opera house on June 28, 2007, the world cultural heritage by the United Nations educational, scientific and cultural organization, and the theater designers to the Danish designer, black pine. The Sydney opera house is located in convenient in Sydney harbour Angle (Bennelong Point), its unique sail shape, plus the Sydney harbour bridge, with the surrounding scenery set each other off becomes an interest.

When to Go The best times to visit are of spring and autumn, especially around March to April or October to November. Sydney is blessed with a temperate climate. Sometimes torrential downpours often break the heat between October and March. Winters are cool rather than cold. Beach lovers unperturbed by the hazards of lizard-skin should come between December and February. Sydney Harbor The harbor is the defining characteristic of the city. Its multiple sandstone headlands, dramatic cliffs, rocky islands and stunning bays and beaches, make it one of the most beautiful stretches of water in the world. Officially called Port Jackson, the harbor stretches some 20km inland to join the mouth of the Parramatta River. The most scenic area is on the ocean side of the bridge. The Sydney Harbor National Park protects the scattered pockets of bushland around the harbour and offers good walking tracks. The best way to experience the harbour is to go sailing, but if you're lacking nautical skills there are plenty of ways to enjoy it. Try catching the Manly ferry, swimming at Nielsen Park, walking from Manly to Spit Bridge, having a drink at Watsons Bay, dining with a view at Rose Bay, Balmoral or Circular Quay, or cruising to the heads on the Bounty. Sydney Opera House Australia's most recognizable icon is dramatically situated on the eastern headland of Circular Quay. Its famous sail- and shell-like roofs were inspired by palm fronds, according to architect Jorn Utzon, but may remind you of turtles engaging in sexual congress. The Opera House is so unique that it has been photographed a zillion times, appears on an army of cheap t-shirts, every other Sydney postcard and decorates the frames of Dame Edna's dramatic glasses. It was built between 1959 and 1973, but plagued with construction delays and political difficulties which culminated in the resignation of Utzon in 1966. Although some visitors are disappointed by the interior, designed by a consortium of Australians after Utzon quit, it's a truly memorable place to see a performance or to sit at one of its outdoor cafes with a bottle of white wine and watch harbour life go by. The Opera House hosts theatre, classical music, ballet and film, as well as the seasonal opera performances. There is free music on the prow of the Opera House on weekends and a craft market on the forecourt on Sunday. The Rocks The Rocks is the oldest, quaintest part of Sydney. Today it is unrecognizable from the squalid, overcrowded and plague-ridden place it used to be. Reinvented by visionaries in the building industry and the trade union movement in the 1970s, the Rocks is now a sanitized, historical tourist precinct, full of cobbled streets, colonial buildings and stuffed koalas. If you ignore the kitsch, a stroll around the Rocks can be delightful. Attractions include the weekend market, the Earth Exchange geological and mining museum, and numerous craft shops and art galleries. But it's the old buildings, alleyways and historic facades that attract most visitors. Try exploring the less developed areas in the contiguous suburb of Millers Point, which has not sacrificed its community life to the tourist dollar. Check out the Lord Nelson Brewery Hotel and The Hero of Waterloo, two of Sydney's oldest pubs. Circular Quay Circular Quay is built around Sydney Cove and is considered by many to be the focal point of the city. The first European settlement in Australia grew around the Tank Stream which now runs underground into the harbour here. For many years this was the shipping centre of Sydney, but it's now both a commuting hub and a recreational space, combining ferry quays, a railway station and the Overseas Passenger Terminal with harbour walkways, restaurants, buskers, parks, the Museum of Contemporary Art and, of course, the Sydney Opera House. Macquarie Street Sydney's greatest concentration of early public buildings grace Macquarie St, many of them commissioned by Governor Macquarie and designed by the convict architect Francis Greenway. The most impressive are the elegant, two-storied Parliament House, Sydney Hospital, the Mint Building, the exquisite Hyde Park Barracks, St James Church and the voluminous State Library. The Barracks and the Mint are now museums, the library hosts exhibitions and there are tours of both the hospital and Parliament House. Macquarie St is the eastern boundary of the Central Business District and borders the Domain and the Royal Botanic Gardens. It runs from Hyde Park to Circular Quay. The Domain, Art Gallery & Botanic Gardens The Domain is a large grassy area east of Macquarie St which was set aside by Governor Phillip for public recreation. Today it is used by city workers for lunchtime sports and as a place to escape the bustle of the city. On Sunday afternoons, it's the gathering place for impassioned soapbox speakers, who do their best to entertain or enrage their listeners. It is also the venue for free events held during the festival of Sydney in January and the popular Carols by Candlelight at Christmas. The Art Gallery of New South Wales is in the northeast corner of the Domain. It has excellent permanent exhibitions of Australian, European, Japanese and tribal art, and has some inspired temporary exhibits. The Royal Botanic Gardens encompass Farm Cove, the first bay east of Circular Quay, and include the site of the colony's first vegetable patch. They contain a magnificent collection of South Pacific plant life, tropical displays in the Arc and Pyramid glasshouses, and a beautiful, old-fashioned formal rose garden. The spectacularly located gardens are a favoured spot for family picnics and wedding photographs. Darling Harbour This huge waterfront tourist and leisure park comprises walkways, gardens, museums, an aquarium, convention centre, casino, eateries and shops. It was once a thriving dockland area, but it declined to the level of an urban eyesore before being reinvented as Darling Harbour in the 1980s by a combination of vision, planning, politicking, forbearance and huge amounts of cash. The emphasis is on casual fun and enjoyment of the kind appreciated by families with small children and coach tourists. The highlights are the Sydney Aquarium, the Australian National Maritime Museum, the water sculpture, the Chinese Garden, the massive IMAX cinema, and the nearby Powerhouse Museum, Sydney's most spectacular museum. Bondi Beach Bondi Beach is the grand dame of Sydney's beaches with a magnificent sweep of sand and a never-ending series of majestic rollers crashing into the shallows. The suburb of Bondi Beach is an eclectic mix of ice cream parlours, designer cafes, greasy fish & chips joints, kosher shops and surf fashion stores. The seafront promenade and pavilion have been given a welcome facelift; car parking and fixing the offshore sewage outlets remain the only problems. Ku-Ring-Gai-Chase National Park [R-p6]Ku-Ring-Gai Chase National Park covers 150 sq km (60 sq mi) of sandstone bushland at the mouth of the Hawkesbury River, 24km (15mi) north of Sydney. The park has over 100km (60mi) of shoreline, plenty of forest and wildlife, a number of walking tracks and some magnificent Aboriginal rock art. Elevated parts of the park offer superb views across Pittwater towards the northernmost suburbs of Sydney. Royal National Park The Royal National Park, 35km (22mi) south of city, is the oldest gazetted national park in the world. The sea of low scrub which covered the sandstone plateau in the north of the park was devastated by the 1994 bushfires, but the forested river valleys and the beaches were unscathed. The park is dissected by the Hacking River and there are riverside picnic and boat hiring facilities at Audley. There's a spectacular 26km (16mi) coastal track stretching the length of the park, which is accessible from Bundeena. It passes the lovely lagoon beach at Wattamolla, and the popular surfing spot at Garie Beach. The best views are from the southern boundary of the park overlooking Bulli from the edge of the Illawarra escarpment. Most visitors to Sydney arrive at Kingsford Smith airport. Airfares to Australia are expensive - it's a long way from anywhere and flights are often heavily booked. The most pleasant way to get around in Sydney is by ferry. A trip on the Manly Ferry is the best way to experience the harbor if you can't charm someone into taking you sailing. Major roads from Sydney go north to Newcastle, west to the Blue Mountains, south to Melbourne and Canberra and down the south coast to Wollongong. Anyway, you will certainly find this trip to Sydney Australia one of your most memorable experiences in your life. The trip will leave you sweet memories that you would like to share with your family and your friends.

sydney opera house must be one of the most recognisable images of the modern world - up there with the eiffel tower and the empire state building - and one of the most photographed. 

not only is it recognisable, it has come to represent 'australia'. 

although only having been open since 1973, it is as representative of australia as the pyramids are of egypt and the colosseum of rome. 

the opera house is situated on bennelong point, which reaches out into the harbour. the skyline of the sydney harbour bridge, the blue water of the harbour and the sydney opera house, viewed from a ferry or from the air, is dramatic and unforgettable. 

ironic, perhaps, that this australian icon - the opera house with a roof evocative of a ship at full sail - was designed by renowned danish architect - jørn utzon.

in the late 1950s the nsw government established an appeal fund to finance the construction of the sydney opera house, and conducted a competition for its design. 

utzon's design was chosen. the irony was that his design was, arguably, beyond the capabilities of engineering of the time. utzon spent a couple of years reworking the design and it was 1961 before he had solved the problem of how to build the distinguishing feature - the 'sails' of the roof.

the venture experienced cost blow-outs and there were occasions when the nsw government was tempted to call a halt. in 1966 the situation - with arguments about cost and the interior design, and the government withholding progress payments - reached crisis point and jørn utzon resigned from the project. the building was eventually completed by others in 1973.

The Sydney area was the ancestral home of the Daruk tribe， whose territory extended from Botany Bay to Pittwater. There are some 2000 Aboriginal （土著居民的）rock engraving sites in the Sydney area， and many of Sydney's suburbs have Aboriginal names. The city of Sydney began life as a penal colony（指英国放逐犯人的殖民地） in 1788， and for the next 60 years received the unwanted， persecuted and criminal elements of British society. Despite its brutal beginnings， the city's mixture of pragmatic egalitarianism（平等主义）and plain indifference has transformed it into a thriving multicultural society. Sydney now attracts the majority of Australia's immigrants and the city's predominantly Anglo-Irish heritage（传统）has been revitalized by large influxes of Italian， Lebanese， Turkish， Greek， Chinese and Vietnamese. The centre of Sydney is on the south shore of the harbour， about 7km （4mi） inland from the harbour heads. The CBD （中央商务区） has become a mini Manhattan of skyscrapers vying（竞争的；竞赛的）for dominance and harbour views， but its relentlessness （指城市钢筋水泥建筑的丛林给人留下的硬邦邦的感觉） is softened by shady Hyde Park and the Domain parkland to the east， Darling Harbour to the west and the main harbour to the north. The Sydney Harbour Bridge and the harbour tunnel link the city centre with the satellite CBD of North Sydney and the suburbs of the North Shore. The city's airport， Kingsford Smith （otherwise known as Mascot）， is about 10km （6mi） south of the city centre. Central Station， Sydney's main train station， is in the south of the city centre， and the main bus terminal is just outside it. The city has a population of 3.7 million and is growing fast.
