Must-see places in Brisbane


Named in honor of Sir Thomas Brisbane, who was Governor of New South Wales from 1821-1825, Brisbane is the capital and most populous city of the Australian state of Queensland. It is around 1 hour north of Sydney, and 2 hours from Melbourne by plane.

Some of the must-see places for visitors before leaving Brisbane are the South Bank Parklands, the Roma Street Parkland, the Brisbane City Botanic Gardens, and the Mount Coot-tha state forest (which includes a lookout over the city that offers a view of the curves of the river, the lines of the freeway, and the skyline of the CBD). Oh, and don’t forget to drop by the Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary so you get to experience holding a koala and feeding a kangaroo – the two popular animals in Australia.

For those planning to visit Brisbane, the first step is to make sure to find a good Accommodation in Brisbane. Depending on your need, you could book in one of the Hotels in Brisbane that are in prime elevated location, or you could avail of a Brisbane Accommodation that is just a walk away to some of the major city cites of Brisbane and South Bank. The next step of course, is to make sure to visit all the must-see places in Brisbane. Happy Traveling!
