About Brisbane

As Australia’s third largest city, Queensland’s capital is a vibrant hub for visitors and locals alike.

Its unique “Queenslander” style architecture, rainforest gardens, museums, art galleries, and cosmopolitan shopping, restaurants and cafes all make Brisbane a great place to live. The subtropical climate and proximity to stunning beaches and World Heritage rainforests is a key attraction.
