"The Royal Botanic Gardens certainly are a brilliant attraction in their own right, as well as being in a spectacular location perched on the edge of Sydney Harbour. Over 200 years old, the gardens have an amazing collection of flora from Australia and across the globe. Wander through Australian natives, a selection of succulents from across the world, or explore the rainforest area."

Tucked in an old warehouse across the road from Sydney Dance Company, this polished diner serves some of the city’s best dim sum.
