Sydney, not only the largest but also the oldest city in Australia, serves as the capital of the Australian state of New South Wales. Situated along the Pacific coast in the southeastern region of the Australian continent, this city sprawls across an expansive area of 12,144 square kilometers and is home to a population exceeding 5 million residents.

Sydney holds the distinction of being the site of the very first European colonial settlement in Australia. Established in 1788 by Admiral Arthur Phillip of the Royal Navy of England, it was named after Lord Sydney, who served as the Minister of Colonies for Great Britain at the time.

The city enjoys a subtropical oceanic climate characterized by pleasantly warm summers and mild winters. Average temperatures in July, the midst of winter, hover around +11°C, while in January, during the summer peak, temperatures typically reach +21°C. Rainfall in Sydney is relatively evenly distributed throughout the year, with an average annual precipitation of about 1,217 millimeters.

Among Sydney’s prominent attractions are the iconic Harbor Bridge, the world-renowned Sydney Opera House, and its stunning sandy beaches that grace the rugged coastline. The city’s shoreline is punctuated with numerous bays and coves, contributing to its unique charm and appeal.
