Brisbane Travel Information

Brisbane is the third most populated city in all of Australia, as well as the capital of Queensland. With a population of more than 2.24 million residents, Brisbane boasts a long and storied history. Originally founded sometime in the early 1800s, it became the capital of Queensland in 1859 when Queensland separated from New South Wales and became its own colony. Since then, the city has grown to popularity on the world stage, hosting the G-20 Summit in 2014.

Things to Do in Brisbane

Brisbane is a very active city with plenty to offer visitors. Southbank Parklands is one of the most popular destinations within the city. The area has a lot of shopping and dining options, as well as walking paths, gardens, and a beach. For those who want to see more of the area outside the city, a river cruise is the perfect option. These cruises allow guests to gain an entirely different perspective of the city than they might get otherwise.

Another must-visit location is the Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary, one of the only places in the world where visitors can visit feed and take photos with a real Koala bear. Brisbane Lookout is a massive hill outside the city that offers some of the most panoramic, beautiful views of the area. Make sure to visit during both day and night! When all is said and done and it's time to relax after a long day, head down to the XXXX Brewery for a night of microbrews and interesting people. With some of the best beer in the world, it's hard to go wrong in Brisbane.
