These 90 beach boxes are the most concentrated and unique on Brighton Beach
Brighton Beach's history can be traced back to the Victorian built in 1862




Foreigners really pay attention to leisure and enjoy life,

Then we went to the Shrine of Remembrance which located in central Melbourne of St.Kilda Road.
The memorial is to commemorate the 114,000 of Victoria soldiers in World War I , of which 19,000 thousand on the battlefields of Europe at the expense of soldiers and construction.




↑ 这座庄严的建筑采用了希腊古典式的设计风格,
纪念馆的正面的浮雕取材于古希腊神话中的和平女神的图案,象征着这些士兵为和平而战。





↑ 馆内四个雕像,安放在纪念馆的角落位置。构造深受希腊与亚述的风格影响,当中并没有基督宗教的主题。
四个雕像群代表着和平、正义、爱国和牺牲,由雕塑家保罗·拉斐尔·蒙特福德所制。




战争纪念馆前的圣火
↑ 战争纪念馆前的圣火是英国女皇伊利莎白2 世在1956 年点燃的。
几十年来无论这个城市发生了多巨大的变迁,也无论是春夏秋冬,这堆圣火总是默默地燃烧着,
它象征着那些为和平而献身的士兵们的灵魂永存!


↑ 屋顶堆叠整齐的砖瓦有个缺口,每年11月11日上午11点,会有一道阳光由缺口处照进馆里,
具馆内的解说员说阳光会准时的掠过碑文中的【Love】上,前后约12分钟。

当时在盖这座纪念馆时是有特别计算过的哟~~



↑ 在纪念大厅的正中心的地面上有一块黑色的纪念碑上面刻著【Greater Love Hath No Man】 的英文字体,周围摆放著各种各样的鲜花。此纪念碑也是墓碑,代表那些兵士们在海外打仗战亡,却没有被好好的埋葬,所以统一用这块纪念碑缅怀那些为了和平而献出生命的士兵。






沿着纪念馆两边的长廊,可以走到二楼的平台。大半个墨尔本城市一览无遗的映入眼中。









最后也不忘了跟战士来个合照~~ 
随后我们就去全澳洲最大的哥德式建筑,St. Patrick Cathedral 。




↑高106公尺的尖塔,历经80年才完工的教堂外部


↑教堂外有一块全澳洲唯一不能踏的草地~因为底下埋有St. Patrick。






管风琴


↑庄严的教堂内部~



虔诚的祈祷者~

不知道这个是不是和神父秘密倾谈的空间呢?呵呵~~
Spencers街上隨手拍,新舊建築有機並存,交相輝映。

墨爾本皇家博物館和周圍的卡爾頓花園一起被評為世界遺產,這也是澳大利亞第一個獲此殊榮的建築,是世界範圍內為數不多的19世紀展覽館之一。
