This travel guide introduces the reader to Queensland's history, people, and geography, and then focuses on the sights and places of interest to visit. It includes travel tips, information panels, colour photographs, and maps enabling visitors to make the most of their stay in Queensland.
Queensland is Australia's second largest state and its advertising slogan says it all: "beautiful one day, perfect the next". The state has 7,400 km (4,600 miles) of coastal scenery, which includes beautiful beaches, coral cays, tropical islands, and waterways that are clear and blue. The Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Whitsunday islands, Cairns and the Great Barrier Reef are all well known and are hugely popular tourist locations. Inland is the Great Dividing Range, where waterfalls tumble off the escarpments, and tropical rainforests are a habitat for some of the rarest flora and fauna in the world. Further inland is the vast, open Queensland outback and Gulf Country, while the north is a wilderness area which should appeal to four-wheel drive enthusiasts. This travel guide introduces the reader to Queensland's history, people, and geography, and then focuses on the sights and places of interest to visit. It includes travel tips, information panels, colour photographs and maps enabling visitors to make the most of their stay in Queensland. It also includes three-star grading of tourist attractions.
