A
Holiday in Sydney is a good choice for people trying to get away from cold winter days. You
can spend Christmas, New Year, and Chinese New Year in Sydney. All hotels in Sydney are also
prepared for business activities. The Christmas spirit is more wonderful when evening falls.
Nightlife in Sydney is full of energy, but during holidays it owns a special taste.
White sandy beaches are located only within a short walk from hotels. You will find beach
barbecues(烧烤),surfing, and diving under the sea very enjoyable. There are also public street
festivals such as Chinese New Year between January and February. You need to book hotels in
advance because they are often filled fast.
Running from Christmas to the New Year, numerous musical events are held in different
places, from hotel restaurants to the Royal Botanical Gardens. Christmas carol(欢歌) performances
are free for visitors to enjoy when the Sydney Youth Orchestra plays at the Royal Botanical
Gardens.
Chinese New Year is one of Sydney’s annual(每年的)attractions.500,000 people will gather in
the city, so if you are traveling to Sydney, this is a reason to extend your vacations. Hotels near
Belmore Park offer food events during Chinese New Year, and Darling Harbor runs traditional
Dragon Boat Races. Others offer tours to the Sze Yup Temple, a Taoist(道教)Church located in
Evergreen.
Seasonal food is also offered at the restaurants, cafes, and room service. In addition, New
Year brings the opportunity to celebrate dining with other guests at your hotel.
