Coming down from the City Trail, we arrived at Circular Quay, which has multiple wharves serving different destinations. Later, we would take the ferry to Taronga Zoo from Wharf 4.

The Sydney Harbour Bridge stands to the left of the quay, while the world-famous Sydney Opera House is on the right. Taking advantage of the good weather, we decided to head right towards Mrs. Macquarie's Chair - a popular photo spot where you can capture both the Opera House and Harbour Bridge in one frame.

The pigeons at the Opera House are quite friendly and surprisingly handsome - large birds with snow-white feathers that seem to pose for photos, showing their perfect profile. Walking along the waterfront towards Mrs. Macquarie's Chair, we passed through the beautiful Royal Botanic Gardens. Joggers would occasionally zoom past, while tourists took photos, and people enjoyed leisurely meals with their families at waterside restaurants.
