Australia is one of the largest countries in the world and, along with New Zealand the best destination for travelling by car, thanks to its simple infrastructure. Many people only associate Australia with the Sydney Opera House or Ayres Rock but it offers so much more: its cultural diversity, natural treasures and numerous contrasts make it a dream tourist destination. From Canberra, the capital, through the extraordinary desert, subtropical forests, incredible beaches and the Great Barrier Reef -- the world's largest coral reef, which is visible from space -- Australia leaves a lasting impression.
