Sydney: a city through one defining place

In Sydney, Sydney Opera House provides a useful point of orientation and a specific place from which to begin exploring the city. earthTV’s perspectives on Sydney keep that local connection in view while leaving room to discover the streets, buildings and landscape around it.

Exploring Sydney in context

Sydney Opera House makes the geography of Sydney more tangible. A named place creates a point of orientation, while the streets and spaces around it reveal another scale of the destination. That relationship between landmark and setting is a useful thread for getting to know the city.

This way of exploring Sydney leaves room for different interests. Architecture may be the first connection, or the surrounding landscape may be more compelling. Following one specific place into its context can make the destination easier to recognise and more rewarding to understand.
