Description: 2018 Set of 3 Mint Unhinged International Stamps Beautiful Cities Release date: 25 September 2018 Australian cities consistently rate very highly in the plethora of “liveability” surveys that have emerged in recent years. According to the annual Economist Intelligence Unit Global Liveability Survey, for example, Melbourne has been the world’s most liveable city for the last seven years, until the most recent poll result (August 2018) placed Vienna in the number one spot and Melbourne as second. In the 2017 survey, Adelaide, Perth, Sydney and Brisbane were all ranked in the top 20. In 2018, Sydney ranked fifth, Adelaide 10th, Perth 14th and Brisbane 22nd.

This international-rate stamp issue features just three of our beautiful cities: Adelaide, Brisbane and Melbourne.
