Brisbane

August 24, 2024

The Brisbane central business district lies in a curve of the Brisbane river. The CBD covers 2.2 km2 and is walkable. Brisbane's metropolitan area is broadly and colloquially divided into the northside and the southside, with the dividing line being the Brisbane River, as crossing one of the 15 bridges across the river is required to travel to the opposite side by land transport. 

Thanks so much Marnie!
