Brisbane Travel
Brisbane is the capital of Queensland with close to 2 million people living in it. However, it has small city laid back feel with everyone so vibrant and positive - maybe a reflection of the year round awesome climate.
There is lots to do in Brisbane from your normal markets and shop cruising to biking and walking along the river side. But perhaps the reason so many get attracted to Brisbane is the rocking night life. US Billboard magazine ranked Brisbane within the top 5 cities in the world for live music. The Valley area is home to every type of entertainment you could want from swanky wine bars to an excellent selection of pubs and clubs.
After spending at least a few days in Brisbane the whole of the East Coast is your oyster. The beaches and coastline of Queensland calls to the North while the hippy chic of Byron Bay and New South Wales beckons to the south. Behind Brisbane and into country Australia you will find sleepy country towns with traditional pubs and very friendly people. Brisbane is the perfect place to make your launchpad for your Australia travel or as a resting point for any number of days during a trip up the East Coast.
