4. Ocean City Boardwalk, Maryland The three-mile (five-kilometer) promenade at the southern tip of Ocean City, Maryland, is typically thronged with beachgoers on summer evenings, munching Thrashers French fries (a dousing of vinegar is a must) and queuing up for a spin aboard antique rides, like the Herschel-Spellman carousel built in 1902. Don’t miss the Life-Saving Station Museum for a look at the history of shipwrecks and the rescue teams that came to their aid. 5. Ocean Front Walk, Venice Beach, California If California is the land of freewheeling culture, then the Venice Boardwalk is its epicenter. While much of the town’s boutiques have gone upscale and beachfront property has been snapped up by Hollywood A-listers, the three-mile (five-kilometer) beachside stretch of fortune-tellers, tattoo artists, weightlifters, handmade jewelry peddlers, and street performers is a remnant of the town’s turn as a bohemian and surf mecca in the 1960s. 6.

From Brooklyn's "Sodom by the Sea" to the freewheeling culture of California's Venice, check out the best boardwalks summer has to offer. 1.

Coney Island Boardwalk, Brooklyn, New York Dubbed "Sodom by the Sea" back in the 19th century for its gambling houses and brothels, the Coney Island Boardwalk began a comeback in the 1980s. More recently, the city revitalized the legendary amusement area Luna Park with 19 shiny new rides, including the much-hyped Air Race, a thrill inspired by aerial racing, and an entertainment line-up heavy on magic and juggling sh...

Melbourne’s impressive new $267m rectangular stadium, AAMI Park, it was opened on Friday as it played host to the Rugby League Test between Australia and New Zealand.

Previously the Melbourne Storm played next door at Olympic Park – the future of that venue is unknown, while larger events have been staged at either the 55,000-seat Etihad Stadium or 100,000-capacity MCG. The new stadium sits nicely in the sports precinct along with Rod Laver arena, Hisense Arena and of course the MCG.

The land that brought you the Great Wall has unveiled its latest engineering marvel: a 42.5-kilometre bridge that is built almost entirely over water. Spanning Jiaozhou Bay in northern China, the three-way bridge connects the port city of Qingdao with the industrial locale of Huangdao and an airport on an adjacent island. The six-lane, 33.5-metre-wide carriageway was built using 450,000 tonnes of steel and 2.3 million cubic metres of concrete, and reportedly cost more than US$2 billion (NZ$2.4b) to build. There are 5200 pillars supporting the behemoth bridge, which is said to be strong enough to stay solid through a magnitude eight earthquake and even sturdy enough to stay standing if hit by a 300,000-tonne ship.
