Another awesome Australian war memorial I visited. There is amazing museum, and if you go up you will get amazing view on city for free. I had really great time but because I was there with kids I will need to go there again to enjoy properly because this shrine deserve that. After visiting this place is great idea to make some Anzac biscuits :)

    Meaningful and educational visit, free access to the galleries (including on the first and second World War, and Australia's role in peacekeeping) which have a wealth of collection of artefacts and explanatory videos.

    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.
