Book Descriptions:

It is hard not to feel drawn to Sydney. It's a coastal crowd-pleaser replete with beaches, bays, barbecues and bronzed bodies, after all. Throw in an enviable climate and high quality of life and it's little wonder Sydneysiders are such a relaxed and informal bunch. But the charms of Australia's most populous city go beyond its natural assets and easygoing lifestyle. The Monocle Travel Guide to Sydney bypasses the usual tourist haunts to unlock the Harbour City's delights, from world-leading restaurants and top-notch independent hotels to keen retailers brimming with Aussie-made goods. There's also more to the city's modernist architecture than its iconic Opera House. While Bondi Beach naturally gets a mention, we'll also reveal our secret swimming spots and a series of cheery neighbourhoods that are best enjoyed on foot.
