Keep a little mystery in your trip planning: Explorer Picture Mode shows a stylized version of every place instead of the real photo, so you can go by the description and reviews first and picture it your own way -- reveal the real photo any time by flipping the switch off, or just for one place at a time from its own page.

Things To Do
Sydney's attractions center heavily on the harbour itself -- the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge anchor Circular Quay, with The Rocks, Sydney's oldest colonial-era neighborhood, right alongside.
Beyond the harbour, Darling Harbour and Taronga Zoo offer family-oriented attractions, while the Royal Botanic Garden gives a quieter, green counterpoint right next to the harbour's busiest tourist strip.
