Australia the continent cum country has so much to offer. From magnificent beaches, vibrant cities, varied landscape there is so much to discover in this place.
All Aussie action in one picture, isn't it?
Any visit to Australia is incomplete without a sight of Kangaroo! Kangaroos are endemic to Australia, according to the estimates of Australian government there were about 34.3 million kangaroos living within the commercial harvest areas of Australia in 2011.
Australia is one big sky country!
This is the standard evening scenes in Smoky Bay, the Oyster capital of Australia. It is a beautiful coastal village on the Western Eyre Peninsula, located within the Great Australian Bight.
If you are looking for a spot to do some fishing and if you want to taste some of the best oysters, then this is your place.
The Iconic Opera House!
Did you know a total of 19 places in Australia have been chosen as World Heritage Sites by UNESCO? And Sydney's iconic Opera House is one of them.?
Believe it or not, some 233 designs were submitted for the Opera House design competition which was held in 1956 and somewhere in January 1957, Danish Architecture, Jorn Utzon was announced as the winner. He won £5000 for his design. Some great work there!
Too cute to handle! #GLAadventure captured this gorgeous scene at Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary in Queensland, which is home to lots of Australian animal species including kangaroos, dingoes, wombats and crocodiles.
Quick Fact: Known as the koala "bear," this cuddly animal is not a bear at all. It is infact a marsupial, or pouched mammal. Whatever it is, one simply cannot afford to leave Australia without snuggling up with one of these warm and fuzzy Aussie mates.
Nothing says Australia quite like the Outback!
It's a place of exceptional natural beauty and where ancient rainforests and vast national parks, rugged mountain ranges and reefs, provide you with Australia's wondrous wilderness experience.
What's great is you can find a little bit of the outback in every state of Australia, and while the regions are quiet remote, they can be easily accessed from most major cities and towns.
#GLAadventure's tried and tested places: Our team's recommendation, one should definitely try Uluru national park, Alice Springs desert Park, Smoky Bay and parts of Perth.
All that Glitters, is indeed Gold!
Glittering skyline of high-rise buildings built around superb beaches, including the world renowned ?Surfers Paradise' - Gold Coast is 52km of golden beaches, 300 sunny days and millions of visitors each year.
For all those who love sun, surfing, sand and activity, this is the ideal place!
The underground life of Coober Pedy
You know, Australia isn't call down under for nothing! Come to Coober Pedy to know why, this place has evolved into one of the most unique places in Australia and perhaps the world. It's a cosmopolitan town with a population of 3,500 and is 846 km north of Adelaide. It was established in 1915 following the discovery of opal here. Did you know ninety five per cent of the world's opal comes from this area?
Been There And Done That - Uluru
Apparently, Uluru is the first official stop for everyone who visits Australian Outbacks and is on many people's bucket lists.
Uluru is better known as Ayers Rock and is named by William Gosse in 1873 after Sir Henry Ayers. The first sight of the mighty Uluru on the horizon will amaze even the most jaded traveller! This enormous rock was created over 600 million years ago, and the Aborigines have been in the area for the last 10,000 years. Originally it sat at the bottom of a sea, but today it stands 348m above ground.
