The Royal botanical gardens is the perfect view of the Opera house at Sunset. The Sunsets beautifully behind the iconic twin sights of the Opera House and the Harbour bridge. Silhouetting them against the bright colours of the shifting sky.
The frequently photographed Sydney Opera house. Is the most iconic landmark of Australia and probably the world. The very image conjures up thoughts of the outback, BBQs, surfing and a laidback life. It was designed by Danish architect Jorn Urtzon, after winning an international competition. The building was inspired when Urzton was peeling and orange but it also supposed to reflect a ships sails, on the harbour. It took 16 years to build due to multiple design setbacks and cost $102 million dollars, almost six times the original budget. Despite it's name the Opera house is a performing arts centre with halls deadicated to orchestra, ballet, opera, and theatre, as well as hosting a variety of Bands, Speakers and Comics.
