City Guide Brisbane, Australia

brisbane

i spend only a few days in brisbane so i didnt get to know the city very well. All in all its nice, it has everything you need, wouldnt count to my favourite cities of australia

Brisbane, the little Sydney

Is like having a little Sydney but without beach. There is one in the center but it's fake. Swiming pool with sand. Is cool but is not the same as chilling out in the ocean and you can't surf if the swimming pool. the closer beaches are 1h30m or 2 hours away (goald coast or sunshine coast). The center is full of skyscapres and cool buldings. It's a young city because is full of backpakers and uni students. If you are passing by I reccomend to stop and take a look around.

world class

Brisbane is the oft overlooked jewel in the diadem of Australian travel. Subtle yet scintillating. Brisbane absolutely captures your heart without overwhelming. Give Brisbane 2 or 3 days more than originally planned ... this city is definitely worth it.

Insider Tip:Free high speed wi-fi located at state library and nearby museums. World class museums are, shockingly, free ... not stodgy ... funky, fresh museums worth multiple visits.

Brisbane

We only stayed in Brisbane for one afternoon and one night, but Southbank is lovely. Walk along the river and you come to restaurants and a lagoon in the centre of the city perfect for chilling out. Not hard to find somewhere decent to eat.

Insider Tip:The view of the city at night is absolutley stunning.

River city!

I loved how everything seems to be facing the river. Lots of areas to do running, cycling or any sport that you like. Very nice in summer, lots of free activities such as fitness classes, movies, and jazz sessions. Most of the museums are for free too. Beautiful weather!
