Australia - Lake Burley Griffin


Lake Burley Griffin, Canberra, Australia.

Sent by Kat, a postcrosser from Australia.

This is from Wikipedia : Lake Burley Griffin is an artificial lake in the centre of Canberra, the capital of Australia. It was completed in 1964 after the Molonglo River—which ran between the city centre and Parliamentary Triangle—was dammed. It is named after Walter Burley Griffin, the American architect who won the competition to design the city of Canberra (read further).
