Oxford Street
You havent seen Sydney, until youve paid a visit to the vibrant area of Paddington on the famous Oxford Street. The street itself is a major thoroughfare connecting Hyde Park of the CBD to Bondi Junction in the eastern suburbs. This street is the place to be. The section to the east of Oxford Street, through the suburb of Paddington , gives way to the many upmarket and designer shops as well as many other cool clothing for the young where purses are emptied and no one is seen without at least 3 bags per hand! The street has numerous stores to cater for all needs and interests. Over to the western section is the home to vibrant colours of the widely recognised gay district where the world famous Mardi Gras is held each year in early March.
While enjoying the shops and areas of Oxford Street, dont forget what lies near this energetic street. Both Centennial Park and Moore Park are close by if you want to take a break from the hustle and bustle. Sydneys sporting hub located south of the Paddington suburb is a must see with the Sydney Cricket Ground and Sydney Football Stadium in the area, and of course the famous Fox Studios, a favourite for movie fans.
It is only when the sun goes down does the inner party animal of Oxford Street come out to play. This bustling night time playground has garnered a reputation as Sydneys chief nightclub strip decorated by the many different bars and nightclubs. If youre the kind that just cant keep off the dance floor or just love being surrounded by the exuberant people of Sydney, dont worry because the night clubs stay pumping till long into the night. Just dont complain the next morning, you were warned!
