Shrine of Remembrance Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
The National War Memorial of Victoria is a stunning tribute to the Australians who have served. Its monuments and gardens were first dedicated in 1934, but has changed over the years, and regularly contains new exhibitions. A visit on Remembrance Day (November 11th) is a particularly touching experience: at exactly 11 am, the Ray of Light shines through the roof onto the Stone of Remembrance, illuminating the word "love."

On the streets of Melbourne, a majestic building stands here, as if bringing ancient Greek shrines into the modern city. This is the Melbourne War Memorial, whose exterior is modeled on the Greek temple and solemnly tells the world a history. A continent that has not experienced war, but its role in the First and Second World Wars cannot be ignored. He is not only a building, but also people's yearning for and nostalgia for peace. The worst peace is better than war, because peace is the one where we all sleep peacefully and hope.
Just next to the Royal Botanic Garden in Melbourne, the Botanic Garden accidentally walked here. A memorial built on a small earth slope can be raised and looked far away. If you visit the Botanic Garden, you can take a look at it by the way. There is no need to run here.
A very well made memorial to Australia's veterans and dead of various wars. Peaceful, and at 5pm they lower the flag to the tune of the Last Post. Interesting museum inside.
The War Memorial Shrine of Remembrance, located west of the Royal Botanical Garden, was built in 1934 to commemorate Australian soldiers who lost their lives in World War I, and later expanded to commemorate Australian soldiers who lost their lives in previous wars. Every year, Anzac Day, Australia and New Zealand Legion Day, Melbourne itself holds a memorial service here. It's a very worthwhile place to visit. On the top balcony of the memorial, you can also see Melbourne Downtown on the North bank.
