Pop-ups and road trips are hot tips for Sydney in 2010The New South Wales (NSW) tourist board has come up with some suggestions of how to spend holidays in Australia.

According to the organisation, one of the hottest new trends next year will be the pop-up.

Described as a new breed of venue - ranging from restaurants to cinemas and even galleries - pop-ups are temporary structures that appear for a short time around the city.

Tourism NSW advised travellers to "keep a close eye out for them". Shipping containers, warehouses and vacant lots are particularly popular locations, it said.

Taking a road trip to some of the state's smaller destinations is also recommended.

"Reconnect with the people around you, enjoy the freedom of taking one or two weeks to reach your destination and discover NSW destinations off the beaten track," the company stated.

Areas that may be of interest to tourists in the region include Jervis Bay, Kiama and Wollongong - all situated along the state's southern coastline.

Visitors can look forward to white sand beaches, turquoise waters and little townships that offer fine food and wines to weary travellers.
