Brisbane has become one of the country's most progressive centres.
Since playing host to a string of major international events in the
'80s, including the 1982 Commonwealth Games and Expo '88, Brisbane
has developed into a lively, cosmopolitan city with several
interesting districts, a good street cafe scene, a great riverside
park, a busy cultural calendar and decent nightlife.
Queensland's growing tourism industry has brought an influx of
visitors to the capital, and with its near-perfect climate
year-round, Brisbane comes as a pleasant surprise to most visitors.
The city is also surrounded by some of the state's major tourist
destinations, and there are plenty of options for daytrips.
