Queensland's natural beauty is indeed breathtaking, with over 1,000 habitat types and five World Heritage-listed locations. The Whitsundays' white sand islands dot azure waters, the Great Barrier Reef's vibrant coral springs to live with fishes and turtles, and the Daintree Rainforest's beautiful green canopy shimmering in the sunlight are some of them. Queensland is the second-largest and third-most populated Australian state, located in northeastern Australia.

Queensland's physical characteristics and temperatures are numerous due to its vastness, with tropical rainforests, rivers, coral reefs, mountain ranges, and beautiful beaches in its tropical and subtropical coastal areas, as well as deserts and savanna in its semi-arid and desert climatic zones.
