- Yunluo looked at the old map of Sydney and knew that it was originally the estuary of a river that flowed into Sydney Bay, and now the river has been filled in and is part of Sydney's towering Central Business District. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
At the southern end of Darling Harbour near the Pyrmontbridge Bridge, Yunluo and An Qingju found a building called WildlifeSydney (Sydney Wildlife), and when they went in, it turned out to be a wildlife museum in the downtown area, and Yunluo and An Qingju just looked in the hall.
But unexpectedly, in the hall, a koala bear was found eating leaves on a eucalyptus tree! You know, the koala bear only has a few hours of activity every day, and it sleeps most of the time, and it is very rare to see it eating leaves. And it's used by merchants for advertising, so you don't need money to watch it!
This is a small koala in eastern Australia, and the large koala seen in Perth by Yunluo and Anqing orange are 2 different varieties of koalas.
Yunluo and An Qingju had dinner at a KFC restaurant next to Sydney Town Hall Station (Townhall Station), and then, from Sydney Town Hall Station (Townhall Station√ took the subway for 2 stops back to Kingscross Station.
After exiting the Kingscross station, you will find MacleayStreet, where the Yunluo and Ann Qingju hotels are located, but at this end of the street, this section is actually a small red light district, (although it is only about 10 minutes away from the subway station to the "Deverehotel" where Yunluo and Ann Qingju live).
But it's just two different feelings. The area where Yunluo and An Qingju live has an elegant and romantic atmosphere, while the section near the subway exit is more passionate. )
But Yunluo and An Qingju found a travel agency here, in order to facilitate the famous "Blue Mountain" scenic spot near Sydney, Yunluo and An Qingju bought WickedTraveld's tomorrow's Blue Mountains day trip itinerary in it, and the specific reason for choosing to buy this Blue Mountains day trip was put in the introduction of tomorrow's Blue Mountain Travel. Let's explain it in detail.
As an old rule, in the travelogue on the first day of arriving in the city, Yunluo gave a detailed description of the city:
Located on the southeast coast of Australia, Sydney is the capital of New South Wales and the most densely populated city in Australia. The metropolitan area has a population of 4,575,532 (2011).
Sydney was the first Australian colony in Europe, founded in 1788 by the captain of the British First Fleet, Arthur Anderson. Philip was founded in Sydney Bay. Built around Jackson Harbour (including Sydney Harbour), Sydney was once known as the "Harbour City". Sydney is Australia's largest financial centre and a major international tourist destination.
It is famous for its beaches, opera house and harbor bridge. Sydney has also hosted a number of sporting events, including the 1938 Commonwealth Games, the 2000 Sydney Olympics and the 2003 Rugby World Cup.
Other than that. Sydney has been ranked as a Band 1 World City by the Globalization and WorldCities Study Group and Work (GAWC).
A map of Sydney from 1789, the "cove" in the map is today's [[Sydney Bay]] Australian Aboriginal people have lived in the Sydney area for at least 30,000 years. When the First Fleet arrived in 1788, there were between 4,000 and 8,000 indigenous people. There are three different language families in the Sydney area, which can be deduced as dialects of smaller tribes.
The main language is Tarur (darug); The Aboriginal people of the city of Sydney, the Cadigal, speak a coastal dialect of Tarur, as well as Tarawa and Guringai. Tribes have their own territories, and the location of their territories determines the amount of resources.
Although most of the tribal sites (such as the shell mounds) were destroyed during urbanization, several sites still contain rock carvings.
Since 1770 British Navy Captain James? After Cook discovered Botany Bay. Europe then took an interest in Australia.
By order of the British government, Arthur? Arthurphillip established a penal colony in Sydney Bay in Port Jackson in 1788. He was named after the then British Home Secretary, Viscount Thomas of Sydney? Townsend named the place. In praise of Sydney, a charter was issued approving his contribution to the establishment of the penal colony.
The cove on this old map of the Sydney area is now Sydneycove (Sydney Bay) to the west of the Sydney Opera House.
The Sydney Opera House is on that east corner below the bay and the farm is now home to the Royal Botanic Gardens. The headofspring of Sydney Creek has been turned into a culvert, and a street called the bridge corresponds to the road that used to cross the bridge over the Bay River.
In April 1789, an epidemic (said to be smallpox) killed many of Sydney's Aboriginal people. Conservative estimates. Between 500 and 1,000 First Nations died in the area between Broken Bay and Botanical Bay, and the Gulinkai and Darug tribes were infected. British colonization met with stubborn resistance, especially led by the warrior leader Pemulwuy.
Wage a protest in the area around Botany Bay. At the same time, clashes often erupted near the Hawkesbury River. As a result, by 1820, there were only a few hundred Aboriginal people left in the Sydney area. Governor Macquarie further "civilized, Christianized, and indoctrinated" the indigenous peoples. to make them leave the tribe.
In 1796, during Macquarie's tenure as Governor of New South Wales, Sydney had its first developments. Prisoners built roads, bridges, docks, and public buildings. By 1822, the city had banks, markets, well-established avenues, and institutionalized police institutions.
The 1830s-40s were a period of urban development, such as the development of the first urban districts. Ships began to pick up migrants from the British Isles who wanted to start a new life in a new country, and Sydney entered a golden age of high development.
The first gold rush began in 1851 when Sydney's harbour was flooded with people from all over the world. At the end of the 19th century, with the advent of steam-powered trams and railway systems, the urban area developed even more rapidly. Due to the convenience brought about by industrialization, Sydney's population swelled rapidly on the eve of the 20th century.
Sydney's population has exceeded 1 million. But the Great Panic hit Sydney hard, and the completion of the Sydney Harbour Bridge in 1932 can be said to be one of the major chronicles of the period.
In the 20th century, Sydney continued to expand, adding to its international charm with an influx of new immigrants from Europe and (later) Asia. The ancestors of Sydneysiders are mostly from the United Kingdom and Ireland. Other immigrants were Italians, Greeks, Jews, Lebanese, South Africans, South Asians.
(including Indians, Sri Lankans, and Pakistanis), Sudanese, Turks, Macedonians, Croats, Serbs, South Americans (Brazilians, Chileans, and Argentinians), Americans, Eastern Europeans (Czechs, Poles, Russians, Ukrainians, and Hungarians)
Image of Sydney, taken by NASA's RS satellite. One-third of Sydney's centre is located on the south shore of the upstream cove. Sydney is located in a coastal basin between the Tasman Sea to the east and the Blue Mountains to the west. Sydney is home to the world's largest natural harbour, Portjackson.
and more than 70 harbours and beaches, including the famous Bondi Beach. Sydney's urban area covers 1,687 square kilometres (651 sq mi), an area similar to that of Greater London. The Sydney Metropolitan Area (Statistics Sydney) covers an area of 12,145 square kilometres (4,689 sq mi) and its effective extent is national parks and other undeveloped land.
Sydney occupies 2 geographical areas – the Cumberland Plain and the Hornsbyplateau. Cumberland Canyon is a relatively flat, somewhat undulating area that lies west and south of Port Jackson. Kongsby Plateau is a plateau north of the harbor.
At 200 meters (656 feet) above sea level, it is cut by a grassy valley. The oldest area of Sydney is located in a flat area. The Cosmoby Plateau, known as the North Shore, has always been off the beaten track due to its steep terrain and slower development. Later, in 1932, the Sydney Harbour Bridge was opened, connecting the plateau with the city, and it developed rapidly.
Sydney has a humid subtropical climate with rainfall throughout the year. Sydney's weather is regulated by the neighbouring ocean, so the western suburbs of the interior are slightly more continental.
The warmest month is January, with temperatures ranging from 18.6°C–25.8°C in coastal areas, with an average of 14.6 days in the middle of the year above 30°C. The highest temperature recorded was 45.8°C, recorded on January 18, 2013, breaking the 45.3°C recorded on January 14, 1939, after the end of a four-day nationwide heatwave. (To be continued.) )
