オーストラリア最大の都市シドニー
Sydney is the largest city in Australia, and it has been visited by millions of tourists every year. The city is located on the east coast and has a population of approximately five million people. Sydney is famous for the Opera House, which was designed by a Danish architect. The Harbour Bridge, which is loved by locals and visitors, has been climbed by thousands of adventurous people. The city has been recognised as one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Many international students who have come to Sydney have enjoyed its multicultural atmosphere. The beaches, which are spread along the coastline, have attracted surfers from all over the globe. Public transport, including trains and ferries, is well-organised and convenient for travellers who want to explore the city.

Q: シドニーのオペラハウスを設計したのはどこの国の建築家ですか?
I have just finished the BridgeClimb experience, and it was absolutely incredible! The climb, which takes about three and a half hours, has been completed by over four million people since it started. We were given special climbing suits that were designed for safety. The views from the top of the bridge were breathtaking — the Opera House, which is situated right across the harbour, looked magnificent. Our guide, who was very knowledgeable, explained the history of the bridge throughout the climb. The experience has been recommended by many travellers, and I can understand why. The sunset climb, which I chose, is considered the most popular option. I have never seen such a beautiful panoramic view of any city. This activity is definitely worth the price!
Reviewの内容チェック
Q: BridgeClimbについて正しいものはどれですか?
オーストラリア人は単語を短くするのが大好きです。'afternoon' は 'arvo'(アーヴォ)、'breakfast' は 'brekkie'(ブレッキー)になります。'See you this arvo!' は「今日の午後にね!」という意味です。友達同士のカジュアルな会話でよく使われます。
シドニーの公共交通機関では 'Opal Card' というICカードが使われています。電車、バス、フェリー、ライトレールで利用できます。日曜日は1日の上限が$2.80なので、日曜日にたくさん移動するのがお得です。'Tap on' で乗車、'Tap off' で下車します。
