Brisbane The
Brisbane region, including the larger islands of Moreton Bay, has been
the domain of Aboriginal people for as long as 40,000 years before
European settlement. European exploration of the region began with John
Oxley in 1832. The first settlement was located at Redcliffe but was
later transferred upstream to the site of today's city of Brisbane,
named after the Governor of NSW.
Famous for its great
weather, exciting events and cultural scene, Brisbane has a
sophisticated, warm and friendly charm, which will more than surprise.
Brisbane is the centre of a region rich in world-class
beach, river, rainforest and mountain experiences.
Brisbane city shopping
means you'll be treated to the best of all worlds. Brisbane's vibrant
CBD and inner city retail precincts are an exciting melting pot of the
very best local, national and international labels, brands and specialty
stores. The heart of shopping in Brisbane, Queen Street Mall, is lined
with a colourful mix of heritage facades, historic arcades and modern
shopping galleries with the extra pizzazz of bold new architecture in
canopies and pavement cafes.
Dining in the City.
Brisbane boasts the kind of dining diversity you'd expect from this
culturally colourful city. The atmosphere is delightfully al fresco with
an emphasis on original menus focusing sharply on fresh food and wines
with flair. The Moreton Bay bugs (seafood) and fresh tropical produce
are still undying favourites which sit comfortably on menus next to
exotic Asian delights, simple Mediterranean meals and traditional
European fare.
Music, dancing,
partying, live shows and good times, there's plenty going on in
Brisbane. Enjoy a hearty pub meal or listen to live music, many hotels
and sports bars feature entertainment on weekends or Friday nights. Play
pool or try your luck at poker machines, there's plenty of informal
cheer at Queensland hotels, sports clubs and bars.
