UNIT 2 ICONIC ATTRACTIONS
澳大利亚是世界上最大的岛国。在澳大利亚黄金海岸有许多景点,开车去的话,会错过很多美景。所以骑自行车旅游是那里的一大特色。
Australia is the largest island country in the world.There are so many interesting attractions in this country.Gold Coast family holidays are always great fun whether you are from Australia or from abroad.There are beautiful beaches, adventure parks, nature parks and so much more.
There are so many sights to see here.It is a pity to drive in a car and you'll miss a great part of it.Australia is home to many animals and birds that can only be seen when moving slowly and going into the areas that they live.
When you are on a bicycle, you have the advantage of being able to stop whenever you want to see an interesting animal or bird that you have never seen before.It is a quieter mode of transportation as well, so you might even be able to take a picture.When you are on the beach, you can breathe the clean air and view the beauty of the water and sand.It is a totally different experience from either simply sunbathing or passing it in a car.
There are many choices of hiring a bicycle to experience the Gold Coast attractions.There are stores that will fit a bike perfectly to your size.These bikes for both adults and children are in many styles and colors to please any taste.If you have ever wanted to try a tandem bike, now is your chance, because they have those, too.
A bicycle hire on Gold Coast is something that everyone should try at least once.This is a wonderful chance for anyone who likes to cycle and it is also a cheap way to travel with your family.
