The best city in the world


This year Sydney, Australia was voted the best city in the world. As an Australian, I feel very
happy about that but my blog isn’t about Sydney. I’m Francesca Williams, from the city of
Melbourne, where I’ve lived all my life. I’d like to tell you why I think my home city is better
than Sydney.

I’m an actress and I’m working in Melbourne at the moment but I often work in Sydney
because they make a lot of TV programmes there so I know the city well.

People say the best thing about Sydney is Bondi beach. I went there in January and it was
sunny but windy. The beach was busy and it was noisy because there were so many people.
My city is on the south coast and there are wonderful, quiet beaches without many tourists.

Melbourne is also famous for old, interesting buildings, such as the Chinese museum, and
there are exciting street markets you can visit. There’s a very modern Arts Centre too but of
course, the Opera House in Sydney is the most famous concert hall in Australia.
Melbourne has a very good public transport system with buses, trains and trams. If you want
to use your car, the roads here are straight and you can drive easily and safely. In Sydney
you get lost in ten minutes because there are a lot of roads you can’t drive down!
Finally, there are many different nationalities who live in Melbourne so there’s an enormous
variety of foreign food to enjoy. My favourite food is Italian but you can eat all kinds of
European and Asian food. Tomorrow night I’m going to try a new Mexican restaurant which
has opened recently. Read my next blog for my food review!
Example: Sydney is bigger than Melbourne.
