Australia’s first city opens its arms, with Lonely Planet’s Sydney City Guide on your iPhone.

Of course, the world knows all about Sydney’s iconic attractions – the Opera House, the Harbour Bridge, the Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras – but how to tap into its more subterranean delights? Well, with this app, one tap it all it takes: you’ll be kayaking off eucalypt-clad headlands in Middle Harbour, slurping down Singapore-style chilli mud crab in some neighbourhood chophouse or catching a high-octane NRL final at Telstra Stadium.

24-style Tai Chi,The short form was less physically demanding than longer forms and other Tai Chi styles, and appealed to older beginners. It provided a good introduction to the basic elements of the Yang Family Taijiquan（taichi） long form. When done properly, the short form can exemplify grace, beauty, and many fundamentals of the art. For these reasons, the Standard Simplified 24 Taijiquan Form has become quite popular and is now taught, practiced and played all over the world.
