A Quick Orientation of Brisbane
A short distance to the south of Brisbane is the Gold Coast, while to the north of the city is the Sunshine Coast. The city itself is split by the meandering Brisbane River, which runs through the centre. South Brisbane and the West End areas are located on the south side of the river. On the south bank of the river are the Queensland Cultural Centre, South Bank Markets and South Bank Parklands.
On the north bank of the river is the city centre area with Central Station, Conrad Treasury House, various government buildings and the Botanical Gardens. Farther to the north is the Spring Hill area where you can find Fortitude Valley.
