Every city has a Chinatown! This is Sydney's. Dixon Street is the main street to check out, but there are many great Asian restaurants in this area. The dodgier, the better!

'The Coathanger', as we call it, is the most iconic landmark in Sydney. You can walk, ride, train or drive over it if you want to get to North Sydney for great photos of the city.
You can also climb the bridge, but it is fairly expensive!
This is also the focal point for the New Years fireworks, so find a spot where you can see this if you want to!
