Australia's country name means "southern land", in Latin – «Terra Au-Stralis».
Even the stories of killer birds, demon ducks and grasshoppers of one meter cannot make us want to go on an excursion to Australia: the country does not cease to attract tourists with its geographical location, nature and diverse tours. So we can say with a clear conscience that a vacation in Australia is special: if you are not afraid of the hot sun, you are ready to travel more than a day to reach the continent, and on the sun lounger do not worry about the presence of any fantastic reptiles, grasshoppers and the Tasmanian devil.
Australia has been generously rewarded for this kind of spirit: the Great Barrier Reef archipelagoes, the blood-red monolithic Uluru, wave greeting cards for surfers, and plush koalas for sentimental ladies. Add to that the magnificent beaches and recognizable landmarks of Australia's landmarks – such as the Sydney Opera House and Harbor Bridge.
The main seaside resorts are located on the east coast, the most popular of which are the Gold Coast and the Great Barrier Reef (GBR). The center of the country is covered with a red desert that has its own Grand Canyon, as well as a navel on the earth – the sacred Uluru Mountain, which locals call the "Red Center".
To the north, near the settlements of the local tribes, there are numerous parks with waterfalls, rivers, crocodile and many other living creatures, the most famous of which is Darwin.
Surprisingly, the tropical region has two seasons: in February and March – hot and humid and in the rest of the weather – warm and dry. Some regions in Australia are subject to drought or flood every year. The average temperature in summer is 20 – 28 ° C, in winter + 11-25 ° C. The probability of frost is only present in the Australian Alps, where the minimum temperatures can reach – 22 ° C. In summer, rain is not visible.
As far as the Australian wildlife is concerned, it is unique and diverse. Birds, kangaroos, zebras, koalas, and more than 700 bird species have been found on the continent. Enjoy the wildlife, it is extremely interesting and unique.
The Sydney Opera House will impress with its grandeur. It is the most recognizable building in the world and is a favorite of world photography. Transformed in 1973, it is now an architectural structure and is a hallmark of Australia. Like a sailing ship, the building contains over 1000 places for visitors.
