For its beaches, its culture and its biodiversity, the country of kangaroos is a dream for millions of travelers. It is time to get to know the largest island in the world, it is one of the places with the highest quality of life. And although it is an immensity of territory that cannot be seen in a single trip, we propose these 5 places that, for us, are essential when it comes to getting to know Australia.

We start the tour:

• SYDNEY AND MELBOURNE

Sydney is one of the large cities with the best quality of life in the world thanks to its good services, magnificent climate, economic level and urban model in which the large number of parks and green areas that are found both in the center (Chinese Garden de la Amistad, Hyde Park, The Domain and the Royal Botanic Garden) and on the outskirts of the city (Royal National Park).

Melbourne is the capital and main city of the state of Victoria, one of the jewels of Australia.

One of the main economic, sports, artistic and cultural centers of the country, it also has two of the most prestigious universities in the world. It was the capital of Australia between 1901 and 1927, before it was decided to move the seat of government to Canberra. This city also hosts the Formula 1 World Championship Grand Prix. It is also the venue for the Australian Open and the Motorcycle Grand Prix, which is held on Phillip Island.

• THE GREAT CORAL BARRIER

Impossible to overlook the largest reef network on the planet, which is one of the seven wonders of the natural world. The Great Barrier Reef, Australia's greatest pride, hides millions of years in its 2,300 kilometers of underwater beauty. For something it often sneaks into the top positions of the places you have to visit at least once in your life. Nobody who visits this country can leave without having dived, in any of its points, in this colorful and psychedelic universe.

• THE GREAT OCEAN ROAD

This legendary route on the south coast, in the state of Victoria, is listed as the most beautiful road in the world. Nothing surprising, since some of the most photographed prodigies in Australia pass through it. Infinite beaches dotted with surfers, imposing cliffs, charming towns, shipwrecks, eucalyptus forests where koalas doze, kangaroos that greet each other on the road... and the mythical Twelve Apostles with their unique profile.

• ULURU-KATA TJUTA NATIONAL PARK

It is the paradigmatic image of the antipodes. A desolate territory, alien to the rest of the world, which covers more than 1,300 km2 and has been declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO since 1987. Here is the magnificent rock formation called Uluru, revered by aboriginal tribes since time immemorial. A fascinating place, full of stories, myths and legends.

• TASMANIA

Although it has passed into the popular imagination due to the famous demon popularized by Warner, this island that hangs to the south of the Australian continent is one of the jewels that should not be missed. A graceful place with no less than fifteen natural parks dotted with beaches, lakes and river forests, which enclose an overwhelming variety and beauty.
