Shopping in Australia

Shopping is an integral part of your travel to a country. Not just do people shop for souvenirs and gifts to carry back home when they visit new countries, but shopping also provides a pleasant pleasure pastime. Moreover, shopping malls are also a part of the list of major national attractions of any country.

Australia is one of the world's favorite shopping destinations. Also, shopping in Australia is not just something that visitors to Australia indulge in exclusively, but the local people also are very enthusiastic about this activity.

Though the most famous places to pick up your purchases are from Chapel Street in Melbourne and Oxford Street in Sydney, there are several other varieties of places to shop from, ranging from flea markets to up marker malls, scattered throughout the country.

The best things to carry back in the form of souvenirs and gifts are local wines; woolen clothing; leather and sheepskin goods; jewelry made of opal and other precious and semi-precious stones; modern art; traditional and modern sculpture and carvings; paintings; bark paintings; boomerangs and other Aboriginal handicrafts.

The best traditional Aboriginal handicrafts can be bought from Darwin and Alice Springs; and also the various showrooms which can be found in all the capitals of every Australian state.

Most big places accept credit and debit cards like American Express, Diners Club, MasterCard and Visa; though carrying cash is your best bet in the interiors. Traveler's cheques can be encashed from all major banks, though a fee may be applicable in certain places.
