SYDNEY TOWER

I have chosen the Skywalk experience as the most interesting part of the Sydney Tower Eye website, which It’s in the "Tickets & Passes" section, because it offers a unique and thrilling way to see the city. Unlike a regular observation deck, this experience allows visitors to step outside at 268 meters high, walking on a glass-floor platform with nothing but air beneath them. 

Normally, the Skywalk experience costs $95 for adults and $75 for children. However, for a limited time, they are offering a Private Valentine's Day Skywalk experience, priced at $400 per couple. This exclusive experience allows couples to celebrate Valentine’s Day alone with stunning views.

ROYAL BOTANIC GARDENS

At the Royal Botanic Gardens, you can dedicate a bench with a personalized plaque for 10 years, costs a minimum of £5,000.

As a Kew member, you’ll receive the award-winning Kew Magazine as part of your annual membership benefits. It is published three times a year and available to members for free in both print and digital formats.

I have chosen carnivorous plants because I find them fascinating because of their unique way of surviving. Instead of getting nutrients from the soil, they trap and digest insects to feed themselves. At Kew Gardens, you can see different types, like: Venus flytraps and Pitcher plants. You’ll find these amazing plants in the Princess of Wales Conservatory and other areas of the gardens.

THE ROCKS

The Rocks of Sydney, commonly referred to simply as The Rocks, is one of the oldest and most historic neighborhoods in Sydney. It is located on the southern shore of Sydney Harbour and is easily accessible from hotels, hostels, and tourist areas. The Rocks Markets do not open on weekdays. They are only open on Saturdays and Sundays from 10am to 5pm.

To reach The Rocks via public transportation, you can take buses that travel through the Central Business District along Elizabeth Street. This specific bus service runs periodically from 10am to 10pm on Saturdays and Sundays. If you take this bus, get off at Bridge Street and walk north to reach The Rocks. There are also bus stops along Alfred Street.

I chose Rockhounds because I love stores that offer authentic, locally sourced products with a story behind them. The fact that the owners are so passionate that they even have their own black opal meaning operation makes it even more special. Their collection of black, white, and Queensland boulder opals is one of the finest, and I find the uniqueness of each piece fascinating.
