Sydney Australia has a ton of architecture. Including modern and world famous like the Sydney Opera House. Then there is the most popular Victorian architecture the Queen Victorian Building. Being a city close to the sea, a harbor city, it is a trade city. Like many other cities, it was also affected by the wars. But let’s put that aside for now, and look at some of the beauty Sydney has in store for us.

Just like most well-preserved 19th century architecture, this Romanesque revival style building, is still radiating in classical vibes. While it is generally available to public as a shopping centre, the interior design also retains its marvel. This was also used a public library and was initially constructed as a marketplace, when City of Sydney was called Sydney Town in 1842.
