Walking outside the Tower-A God's View of Sydney
One day I will always climb to the top of you and see all the small mountains around me. One of du Fu's songs, Wang Yueyue, showed that people were not afraid of difficulties, dared to climb to the summit, looked down on all the ambition and spirit, and longed for high scenery. In Australia, this is not a difficult task. Australians, who are good at finding fun in life, have developed some of their iconic buildings into platforms for high-altitude climbing, allowing people to experience the feeling of "taking the small hills around them at a glance" in the city!
At 268m in Sydney, there is an outdoor viewing platform called the "Air Corridor" (Sydney Tower Skywalk), but only an advance reservation can be made. The experience is to walk outside the tower at the top of Sydney! The tower walk, also known as "air walk," was officially launched in 2005, costing nearly $4 million, and has been popular with tourists around the world as soon as it opens.
You will be wearing special clothes, under the protection of professional security facilities, at Sydney's commanding heights and Sydney city scenery zero-distance contact! Then around the tower, 360 °enjoy the city's dazzling panorama. When the weather is fine, Sydney city view and famous landmarks at a glance, can even overlook the boundless scenery 80 kilometers away.
And the heart of Sydney is at your feet. As long as you are brave enough, you can take a bird's eye view of the busy city through the glass viewing platform under your feet. Walking outside the tower for 45 minutes, a cordial coach will accompany visitors throughout the event and will give you a detailed introduction to Sydney's landmark buildings, as well as undetectable and easily overlooked attractions in the distance. I believe that such a wonderful landscape will leave you with a good memory.
