Top Ten Most Famous Australian Cities

The Top Ten
Melbourne

The thing is, Melbourne is the only city in Australia (other than Adelaide and Canberra) that actually has culture. Everywhere else is tacky.

Let's be honest - if Sydney didn't have its Opera House, Melbourne would be one of the most famous cities in the world.

Brisbane

Good climate - hot in summer, cold in winter. Great interactive museums and places like that. Love it.

Gold Coast

Best one to visit because there are heaps of rides to go on at theme parks.

Best city in Australia.

Hobart
Darwin
New Castle

It's spelled Newcastle.*

The Newcomers

? Logan Reserve
? Jindabyne

It's actually a good city in NSW. I went there for holiday from 2019 to 2021 because I was there for New Year.

The Contenders
Alice Springs
Cairns

"The gateway to the Great Barrier Reef." Honestly, it's a beautiful place to live. Cairns is very diverse. Some people think we are racist, but the truth is far from that. Cairns is paradise to me.

Mount Gambier

I don't know why it's not on here sooner.

The Blue Lake is the best.

Townsville
Tweed Heads
Launceston

Beautiful city.
