AUSTRALIA

Land of kangaroos, the didgeridoo and the great outdoors, Australia offers a breathtaking landscape of disparities between the ultra-modern megacities like Melbourne or Sydney and wild lands where the pioneering spirit prevails.

Huge continent that bears the most beautiful natural treasures of planet rock formations in the Outback Red land in the central regions, the road is lined with breathtaking views. Mineral and wild, Australia is not a huge desert region. Vegetation provided Tasmania, huge coastal beaches and the Great Barrier Reef offer sumptuous and refreshing landscapes.

Culture lovers will delight in the urban centers of shows and festivals enliven the cities of Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide throughout the year. Meet the Aborigines in Queensland, the nobility of the country and its origins are best captures.

For Europeans, the vast continent (14 times that of France) is above all a dream, the dream of a new world that has taken over the American West. Still, the country remains in a good twenty hours by plane from France, and it is, among other things, why it is better to stay at least three weeks. Ready for adventure?

Australia was the filming location of "Jaws," the eccentric road movie "Priscilla Queen of the Desert" and obviously the set of the film "Australia" with Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman.
practical advice
Rent a car in Australia
People drive on the left side in Australia. So be careful if you are not used.
peoples
In Australia, there is not an indigenous people, but many tribes differing in their languages, arts and traditions.

A concept organizes the lives of Australian Aborigines: it is the so-called "dream time" which is a founding period of the tribes there are several thousands of years. Contemporary popular culture of the aboriginal tribes ensues.

Today, these peoples and cultures are threatened. A direct consequence of the colonization of Australia. Aborigines hold sacred the land they live and can not be moved without risk of losing their culture altogether.

Some agencies allow you to experience Aboriginal culture in the context of sustainable tourism. Particularly in Queensland: More information
