Just recently, a travel guide book released its list of the top ten cities in the world that can be a very good place to visit with children. And one of the cities mentioned is Sydney, Australia. If You'll take an Australia tourist visa, you'll find the city on the south west part of the map.
Sydney was selected not only because of clean beaches, but mainly because of its high-tech aquariums and natural wildlife parks
Lonely Planet Publications or Lonely Planet is a distinguished international travel guidebook. It is one of the largest among all travel books. AS of 2008, the publication has published more than 500 titles in 8 languages. They also have their own TV programs, magazine, podcasts and websites. These makes them a reliable source to announce what are the top and ideal cities that families can visit as a treat for their children.
To complete the list here are the following cities:
1. Oaxaca, Mexico
This colorful Mexican city is pint-sized, charming and fun to explore on foot. A central plaza provides plenty of run-around space for kids and there's a vibrant market.
2. Istanbul, Turkey
With its mosques, palaces, museums, bazaars, multicolored carpets, food markets, Bosphorus cruises and sweet apple tea, the children will be fascinated and enchanted at every turn.
3. London, UK
In summer don't miss out on playing in the fountains at Somerset House where there's an outdoor ice-skating rink in the winter.
4. Los Angeles, US
A good destination for teenagers – choose between the original Disneyland, Universal Studios and Santa Monica. There's heaps to see and do in this sprawling city that encapsulates the American Dream.
5. Vancouver, Canada
The most liveable city in the world. There's lots of water as well as beaches, a huge urban park (Stanley Park) and numerous hiking and biking trails. All the attractions of the Rocky Mountains are just over 100 km (62 miles) away.
6. Lisbon, Portugal
With trams trundling up to a castle, a state-of-the-art aquarium and a fascinating museum that explores Portugal's great seafaring past, this city captivates kids. The fairy-tale town of Sintra, too, is also likeable for kids.
7. Copenhagen, Denmark
Oozes old-world charm, with a compact city center, a lively waterfront and pedestrian-only zones. Thrilling rides at Tivoli Gardens and Bakken, a royal palace and museums designed especially for children will keep you busy.
8. Singapore
Singapore is a gentle introduction to the cities of Southeast Asia – and an excellent jetlag-busting pit stop on the long haul between Europe and Australasia. Also, Sentosa Island with its beaches, butterfly park, dolphin lagoon and underwater world has to be seen to be believed.
9. Sydney, Australia
If beaches, swimming pools and numerous ferries aren't enough, there's Sydney Aquarium, Taronga Zoo and the Koala Park Sanctuary, which are all huge hits with the young ones.
10. Rome, Italy
Italy's best gelato, the impressive Colosseum and Castel Sant-Angelo, spooky catacombs under Via Appia Antica and the green spaces of Villa Borghese.
