Koala Town had a prisoner of war camp during World War II. In August 1944, more than 1,000 Japanese prisoners tried to escape from the prisoner of war camp, resulting in the death of 231 of them and four other Australians. After the war, Koala Town shook hands with Japan to make peace. The Australian World Peace Bell was built to commemorate the hard-won peace. On the street, a bronze bell hangs under a hexagonal pavilion. It is a replica of the big bell outside the United Nations Headquarters building, the only one in Australia. As you approach the Peace Bell, an audio introduction to the history of the Peace Bell will automatically play. You can ring the bell yourself.

Just in the center of the town, you can walk nearby. We came over on the way to take the Hong Kong restaurant. The peace bell is small, but the sound is still very crisp and commemorative.
A very distinctive peace bell, many people come to take pictures as a souvenir
Especially love... Feeling it's a very comfortable place
