Family holidays in NSW offer lots of variety between destinations, from tropics to the red outback.  The state boasts plenty of things to do and see, and without a doubt the most fun goal any traveller can have is to make their way around Australia to uncover the large collection of big things to see.  Traveling NSW and taking in the larger than life sights promises a memorable trip filled with fun and excitement for the entire family. So it’s time to take a look at Australia’s Big Things to see in NSW.

Australia's Big Things in NSWWhile they may be spread out across all corners of NSW, stopping to view big things makes for a unique and memorable trip.  Taking photos in front of huge replicas of everyday objects, animals and even foods makes for a highly entertaining and memorable addition to your family holiday.

If you’re truly adventurous, you could do a massive road trip to take in all the Big Things you can possibly track down, but for most people on holiday, it’s a matter of stopping by a few of these humourous landmarks on the way to other destinations.  Many of the large monuments are located near popular tourist destinations, providing for an interesting and off-beat excursion without much additional travel.  Use your wacky group photo for your family’s holiday cards or simply keep a copy as a memento from your trip.

So if you’re heading off on a NSW family holiday, don’t forget to allow some extra time to add a few “Big Things” stops into your itinerary
