This is like the New York's Central Park, a park in the heart of the city. Located in the Brisbane Central Business, this park area covers 16 hectares, opened for 24 hours with some facilities like dining, playground, and wheelchair-friendly pathways and toilets.The flowers here are very pretty, so colorful and vibrant, and I met a few reptile friends along the way. I searched it up, they might be the Australian Water Dragon or Intellagama Lesueurii. They're native animals and very friendly because they're used to seeing humans.Parks like this don't exist where I came from, so it's really worth a visit!

The food court is very orderly. Although there are many people, it is not as chaotic as the food festivals we often see in China.

澳大利亚布里斯班市中心的圣约翰大教堂是一座英国圣公会大教堂。 圣约翰大教堂的建筑设计很像欧洲中世纪的罗马式和哥特式大教堂一样，是通过教会、石匠和建筑师之间近 100 年的合作完成的，这在澳大利亚是独一无二的， 圣约翰大教堂是南半球现存唯一石质拱形天花板的建筑。

The variety of vendors allowed for interesting browsing. Had some very unique Christmas gifts to bring back to Canada. Had a long stroll along Kangaroo Point and then breakfast on the South Bank where we read the newspaper... The decoration of the market was just wonderful.
