Arrival and departure

You can only fly from China to Australia. There are seven international airports in Australia, namely Asdre, Brisbane, Cairns, Darwin, Melbourne, Sydney and Perth, among which Melbourne and Sydney are the busiest.

There are direct flights to Australia from Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Macau in China. Visitors can also choose to transfer to Australia in Hong Kong, Bangkok (Thailand) and Singapore. Generally speaking, the price is relatively cheap, but these routes are very popular, so tourists need to book tickets in advance.

Local call

Airplane, train and public transportation Other Australia has a vast territory, so traveling by air is a good way. Australia's international operator is Qantas, which is considered as one of the safest airlines in the world and a symbol of reliability, safety, advanced technology and quality service.

There are two low-cost airlines in Australia, namely Jetstar and Virgin Blue under Qantas. It should be noted that they all stop boarding 30 minutes before take-off.

In addition to these two low-cost airlines, there are also several airlines operating regional routes in Australia, which are the only choice to visit some remote islands.

Australia is a vast country. If there is no car, it is inevitable to take the train. Taking the train is a very comfortable way. Interstate and intrastate railway services connect our city and regional centers, and you can enjoy the scenery along the way. Trains are divided into economy class and luxury car. You can choose according to your financial situation.

Countrylink trains connect destinations in New South Wales and also travel along the east coast of Australia to Melbourne, Brisbane and Canberra. The VLine train connects the regional transportation hubs of Melbourne and Victoria, the Traveltrain covers Queensland, and TransWA extends in all directions in Western Australia.

Australia's most famous train travel route is provided by the Great Southern Railway Company, which runs between Sydney and Perth. Halfway through Brokenshire, Asdre and Karguli, which are rich in gold mines, I got off the Indo-Pacific line and drove between Asdre and Darwin, enjoying the beautiful scenery of the red central part and tropical top of Australia.

The bus service system in Australia is very developed, very cheap and very reliable. Most cars have central air conditioning, televisions and toilets. Smoking is prohibited in all cars. There are fixed bus stops in the city. If it is a small town, there are usually stations for passengers to get on and off at post offices, shops or newsstands.

Greyhound Australia provides a nationwide car network. In Australia, it is 5% cheaper to buy a ticket on the train than at the counter, but if you buy it by telephone, you need to add a booking fee of $4. It should be noted that in some parts of Australia, it is not allowed to buy tickets between two places in the state and the region, and it must be interstate or cross-regional (this rule does not apply to Greyhound pass holders). These states and regions include: South Australia, Victoria, part of New South Wales and Northern Queensland.

Bicycle; Bicycle exercise

Tourists can choose to visit Australia by bike. There are very wide bike lanes and winding country roads for cyclists to show their talents. It is particularly important to note that the local government stipulates that bicycle helmets must be worn on all continents or regions in Australia.

And when riding a bike at night, there should be a white warning light in front of the car and a red warning light behind the car. If you want to buy a bicycle with better performance in Australia, the general price will not be less than 400 to 500 Australian dollars, so you can choose to buy a used car to save money.

ferry

The only Australian passenger service company is TT Shipping Company, which provides ferry service between devonport and Melbourne and Sydney.

Introduction to local diet

Australia is an immigrant country, so you can eat dishes from all over the world. These dishes are rich in materials, cheap and delicious. In Australia, you can taste special foods from different countries. There are restaurants in China, Thailand, Malaysia, India, Japan, Vietnam and so on. Among them, China restaurants occupy a dominant position. Because China has a long food culture, China's food is world-famous, and Australia is no exception. Many Australian residents like to invite friends and family to China restaurant for world-class cooking on weekends. Therefore, no matter which Australian city you go to, it won't be too difficult to find a Chinese restaurant to eat, not to mention Chinatown everywhere, enjoying the title of China Food City.

Of course, like cities such as the United States, fast food culture is also popular in Australia to adapt to the fast-paced urban life. Foreign fast food such as KFC, McDonald's and Italian pizza can be seen everywhere. These will be the first choice for lunch during normal working hours, which may be considered as working meals for Australians. Therefore, during non-holiday periods, restaurants are usually relatively deserted, but when it comes to holidays, it is another prosperous scene.

Local delicacies

Since the 1970s, Australian chefs have begun to combine the characteristics of European and Asian cuisines to cook amazing specialties. "Modern Australian cuisine" has become the guarantee of delicious food.

Characteristic food

Kangaroo meat Kangaroo meat tastes similar to beef, but it is not as tender as beef, and there is nothing special about it.

However, tasting kangaroo meat, as Australia's national animal, undoubtedly has another cultural flavor.

Most states allow kangaroo meat to be sold. Some butchers have fresh meat, and some restaurants have kangaroo dishes. The price is close to beef.

The so-called king crab refers to this fat crab. The king crab is as big as a basin, and it makes people drool. Some people even brought the emperor crab shells back to China as souvenirs.

Australian oysters, also known as oysters, are fat, clean and cheap ($6/ 12). Oysters can be eaten raw or steamed. Many Hong Kong people go to Australia to eat oysters, and they even joke that it is worth a plane ticket.

Fresh oysters don't even have a lid, so customers can watch the salesperson open the lid and squeeze fresh lemon juice until the oyster meat is eaten raw by the sauce, which is very delicious.

Australian lobster is the most famous in China. In the hometown of lobster, the price of lobster may not be cheap.

Australia abounds in abalone.

Cultural geography

Environmental History Australia has a tropical desert climate, a tropical rain forest climate in the northeast, a Mediterranean climate in the southeast and southwest, a subtropical monsoon climate in the east and a savanna climate in the west. Contrary to Asia, summer in Australia is from1February to February, autumn is from March to May, June to August is winter, and spring is from September to 1 1 month. Australia has a pleasant climate. The temperature is not very high in summer and it is not very cold in winter. The temperature in summer is about 25 to 20 degrees Celsius, and the temperature in winter is 20 degrees Celsius. On the eastern coast, the climate is very suitable all year round, which is very suitable for tourism.

Australian aborigines came here about 40 thousand years ago. They live by hunting and gathering, and are often referred to as Torres Strait Islanders and Aborigines. Although their skills are simple, relying on wood, bones and stone tools, their spiritual and social life is very complicated. Most people can speak several languages, and scattered tribal groups are allied. The population density of aborigines in coastal areas is one person per square mile, while that in arid inland areas is one person per 35 square miles. When Captain james cook declared Australia as British territory in 1770, the local indigenous population reached 300,000, including 500 tribes and different languages. Today, the indigenous population has reached 4 1 10,000, accounting for 2.2% of the total population. Since the Second World War, both the government and the public have made greater efforts to actively respond to the rights and needs of indigenous people.

Explorers from Portugal, Spain, the Netherlands and Britain discovered the island before 1770, while Captain Cook discovered the east coast and claimed that the island belonged to Britain.

1788 65438+1October 26th (Australia National Day), the first fleet led by Captain Philip landed in Sydney, and officially announced the establishment of the New South Wales colony on February 7th.

185 1 year's gold rush made population, wealth and trade grow rapidly.

The six colonies that make up the Australian states today were established in the following order: New South Wales,1788; Tasmania,1825; Western Australia,1830; South Australia,1836; Victoria is 185 1 year and Queensland is 1859.

In May 65438 AD, the Duke of York (later King George V) convened Australia's first federal parliament in Melbourne. 1927 In May, the seat of the government was transferred to Canberra, a city designed by American Walter Burleigh Griffin. Another Duke of York (later King George VI, England) called the first parliamentary meeting. Australia passed the Westminster Adoption Act on1October 9, 1942, 10, which officially declared Australia's complete autonomy in internal affairs and diplomacy.

1986 Australian law eliminates the residual British legal authority.

Since Europeans landed in 1788, immigration has been the key to Australia's development. Most settlers come from the British Isles, but Australians today are mainly of British and Irish descent, and their culture and appearance are similar to those of Americans. However, since the end of World War II, the population has more than doubled. Through a series of large-scale planned immigration projects, the number of non-European immigrants from the Middle East, Asia and Latin America has greatly increased from 65,438 to 0,960. From 1945 to 2000, about 5.9 million immigrants settled in Australia, of which about 80% stayed here. Two out of seven Australians were born abroad. The main sources of post-war immigrants are Britain and Ireland, followed by Italy, Greece, New Zealand and the former Yugoslavia.

Australia has been active in international affairs since it fought side by side with the United States and other allies in World War II. 1944, Australia and New Zealand concluded the Agreement on the Security, Welfare and People's Development of Independent Territories in the Pacific (ANZ Agreement). After the war, Australia was a member of the Far East Anti-Japanese Committee and supported Indonesian independence (1945- 1949). Australia is one of the founding members of the United Nations and the South Pacific Commission (1947). In 1950, it put forward the Colombo Plan to help developing countries in Asia. 1948- 1960, Australia sent troops to help Malaya suppress the * * rebellion. Later, in 1963- 1965, Australia helped Malaya fight Sarawak, which was invaded with the support of Indonesia. Australia also sent troops to Vietnam War as an American ally, and joined the allied forces in the199/kloc-0 Persian Gulf conflict and the 2003 Iraq war.

1 951September1day, the security treaty between Australia, New Zealand and the United States (ANZUS) was concluded in San Francisco and came into effect on April 29th. The three parties also promised to maintain and develop the individual and collective ability to resist attacks.

1985, the nature of Australia-New Zealand-american league changed after the New Zealand government refused the nuclear weapons and nuclear-powered ships of the US Navy to enter its port. Therefore, the annual bilateral meeting between the US Secretary of State and the Australian Foreign Minister replaced the annual meeting of the Australia-New Zealand-US Council of Foreign Ministers. The first bilateral meeting was held in Canberra on 1985. The second time was held in San Francisco 1986. The United States and Australia announced that the United States would suspend its treaty security obligations to New Zealand until the port resumed traffic. Subsequent ministerial meetings between Australia and the United States were held alternately in Australia and the United States. The 15 meeting was held in Washington on October 28th, 2002.
