Sydney, Australia

Sydney, Australia, is also one of the most beautiful cities in the world designation because of the way natural beauty and art are combined in this modern city. Australia’s biggest city benefits from a waterfront culture, with locals hopping on ferries to commute home—or play—on Bondi, Manly, and Coogee beaches, with the dramatic Sydney Opera House, stands sentry in the harbor. The dramatic views of Sydney's harbor, made even more stunning by the single-arch steel bridge up against the famous Opera House, showcase the city's sleek architecture, and it's also a surfer's paradise as well as a hub for design and style.

As Australia’s largest city is located on the waterfront, it’s almost unfair how pretty Sydney really is. Besides the picturesque coastal paths leading to Bondi, Coogee, and Manly beaches there’s still the dramatic Sydney Opera House is the symbol of the city. Its charm is further amplified by its gorgeous leafy suburbs like Surry Hills. Take a ferry ride and glide along the glittering harbor. Admire the graceful arch of Sydney Harbour Bridge, spot the white sails of the Opera house, and see why this city is so beautiful. The Sydney Opera House is the most recognizable of the city's landmarks, but the Royal Botanic Gardens, Bondi Beach, and Harbor Bridge are also worthwhile attractions. A sparkling harbor, beautiful beaches, and impressive landmarks galore are responsible for Sydney’s place in the beautiful cities poll. Its charm is further amplified by leafy suburbs like Surry Hills and picturesque coastal paths, such as the one that leads from Bondi to Coogee.
