 Circular Quay, Sydney
Circular Quay is a place on the northern side of Sydney's Central Business District. It is located between Bennelong Point, where the Sydney Opera House is located, and The Rocks. Circular Quay consists of walkways, pedestrian malls, parks and restaurants. It is a major transport hub for Sydney, with quays for ferry, a train station and a bus terminus. The Cahill Expressway passes through Circular Quay to link to the Sydney Harbour Bridge to the west. Formerly there was also a tram terminus at Circular Quay which has now been replaced by the bus terminus.
