The world's largest island and smallest continent, where the oldest living culture on earth meets some of its youngest cities. Read Sydney at your own pace, from the convict-built lanes of The Rocks to the sails of the Opera House and the great steel arch over the harbour; wander Melbourne's grid of hidden laneways, arcades and coffee, laid out on a goldfield fortune; and walk Hobart's Georgian sandstone waterfront at Salamanca, the second-oldest city in the country and the gateway to its convict past. A continent settled along its edges, its history written in sandstone and story, and all of it better on your own clock, lingering at a harbour view or a warehouse cafe as long as you like.
