Old Sydney photos – Bourgeoise Bloomers

Yes folks we have history right here in Sydney. We also have plenty of hidden gems. Old city streets that were once hip and happening that have now been turned into shopping malls. harbour bridge Lot’s of little lane ways once luring the unsuspecting with the promise of buried treasure now harbour slick night clubs and grand hotels. Once surrounded by lush gardens many of our city gems now wait to go under the hammer of eager developers. Still a great city. Always growing.

Reaching for the stars with it’s deck chaired roof tops and it’s ever climbing sky scrapers. Sydney is an enigma. A city that never gives up. Here then is a pictorial tribute to a city I will always love.

Sydney is a cosmopolitan city and fully deserves it’s reputation as one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Over the New Year holiday Sydney siders will do as they’ve always done. They will promenade the city streets, hang out at the beach and take long lunches.
