Surrounded by inlets from Sydney Harbour, Glebe in the city's inner suburbs is known for its diversity and mixture of world cultures.
The area is located just three kilometres from the central business district (CBD) of one of the world's busiest cities. Because of its proximity, residents enjoy easy access to Sydney's central hub through a range of transport options including buses and metro light rail.
They can also enjoy the convenience of Central Station where from that terminal, trains stretch out to different sections of the state.
What makes the area such an endearing suburb is its mix of identities and cultures which is typified by its main thoroughfare - Glebe Point Road. Lining the street is a litany of different restaurants from a range of different cuisines including Dutch, Indonesian, Thai, Italian, Indian and even Nepalese.
Glebe is known for its history, with many buildings dating back over 100 years including St Scholastica's College and St John's Church - a gothic cathedral which was built in the 1850s.
The suburb's biggest and most utilised shopping centre is Broadway Shopping Centre which houses 100 stores, in addition to the big names like Kmart, Liquorland, Target and a 12 theatre cinema centre.
For more novelty items, there is a weekend market at the grounds of Glebe Public School where visitors and locals can shop for gifts and trinkets that wouldn't be found in big malls.
In addition to Glebe Public, there are a range of other schools in the area ranging from Catholic, top private schools and even the Tranby Aboriginal College.
Because of its easy access to the University of Technology and the University of Sydney, in addition to the CBD, the area is popular with younger people who inhabit the surrounding suburbs.
