Big City Buzz Meets Riverfront Charm
Brisbane is Australia’s third-largest city, but it’s got a relaxed vibe that makes it feel just right. Built around the winding Brisbane River, the city is packed with green parklands, cultural hotspots, and buzzing urban precincts.
For unbeatable views, start your day with a sunrise hike at Mount Coot-tha or take a leisurely stroll along the Brisbane Riverwalk. Explore the City Botanic Gardens and the Roma Street Parkland, or take a ferry ride to New Farm for boutique shopping, riverfront cafés, and open-air markets.
If you love a city with history, the Story Bridge, Queen Street Mall, and South Bank’s riverside precinct are must-visits. And yes—there’s even a man-made beach in the middle of the city!
Brisbane’s Best Eats & Drinks
Brisbane’s dining scene is as diverse as its neighbourhoods, from laid-back riverfront spots to hidden laneway gems. Watch the sunset over the Brisbane River while enjoying a meal at one of the city's vibrant food precincts, or explore the lively Fish Lane dining strip, packed with top-rated restaurants and bars.
After dark, Fortitude Valley is the place to be for live music, rooftop bars, and late-night bites. And if you love a good weekend market, Brisbane’s inner-city neighbourhoods serve up some of the best artisanal food, fresh produce, and street eats in Queensland.
