University | Sydney

The UTS (university of technology) architecture is a sight to behold, with its features that grabs the attention visually.

Contrast & form, transparency & light and expressive geometry – some buildings intended as statements or landmarks with its glass façades, open atria, curved facades etc.
A great experience for anyone that’s interested of architecture & design.

Jacaranda season

It’s a flowering season in Sydney now, but outside of the season, jacaranda trees tend to lose their leaves (or at least many of them) & can look quite bare. The trees are deciduous in their growth habit, losing their leaves for part of the year. In Sydney in particular, they often turn yellow in winter & lose their leaves in late winter/early spring.

A very busy place & popular among locals – a decent place, especially if you like Shanghainese-style or modern Chinese cuisine. The restaurant offers a really large menu of popular Shanghai style dishes.

Secret garden

Wendy’s secret garden, a public garden & much loved oasis in the heart of Sydney. Located a short walk over the Sydney Harbour Bridge – where you can explore meandering pathways discovering sculptures or read a book at one of the tables beneath the garden’s canopy. Created over 20 years by artist Wendy Whiteley, wife & muse of Australian artist Brett Whiteley, the Secret Garden is nestled behind Luna Park in one of Sydney’s most spectacular suburbs, Lavender Bay.
