Just a little about our great
City of Brisbane.....
Brisbane is the capital of Queensland
and is a cosmopolitan and lively city that is home to many
different types of scenery, including skyscrapers,
parkland and even an artificial beach. Brisbane is a river
city, although close to the coast, with Brisbane River
running through it. It is surrounded by hills and full of
bridges. Brisbane also gives easy access to a number of
attractions as well as the Gold Coast and the Sunshine
Coast.
Known as the City of Sun Days, Brisbane enjoys
great weather, a relaxed pace of life and all the cosmopolitan
bustle of a major urban hub. It doesn’t seem to matter what time
of year it is – there’s always something exciting happening in
this vibrant city. You’ll find the best in arts and culture,
entertainment and sports events as well as good food, wine and
shopping.
'Brisbane is a lazy town with its sleeves
rolled up, casually sprawling across its thirty-seven hills.
The hills are patterned with paling fences, mango trees,
high-stepping weather-board houses, and a tangle of overhead
wires like the web of a demented spider
Music, dancing, partying, live shows,
good times – there’s plenty more going on in the City of
Sun Days and fun nights.
Brisbane has a sub-tropical climate. The
coolest months are July/August with day temperatures around 21º
Celsius, nights around 10º Celsius. The hottest season
(January/February) has highs around 29º Celsius with evenings
around 21º Celsius. So your luggage should be mainly light clothes,
cool and casual. No wonder Queenslanders say 'Beautiful one day,
perfect the next'.
