Cairns Day 4: 5 days and 4 nights plan

Day 4 was Kuranda!

We took the Skyrail gondola to Kuranda.
After arriving, we strolled around town.
Kuranda is a little different from Cairns City,
with a deep atmosphere!
There's also the Koala Gardens, where you can hold a koala. 🐨
It's a small zoo where you can get up close and personal with the animals.

We took the Kuranda Scenic Railway from Kuranda to Cairns City. 🚂
This is a famous railway known worldwide for its train window views.
It takes about two hours to travel through the World Heritage-listed rainforest!
There are only two round trips per day, so we recommend checking the schedule and purchasing your ticket in advance.
There is no air conditioning on the train.
I rode it in December, but it's very hot in the summer,
so I recommend taking precautions against the heat. ^_^
The retro atmosphere is great, and there are plenty of things to see, with views of the other train cars, the rainforest, waterfalls, and more from the window!
