"Australia's vastness has a natural beauty in many forms, dramatic coastlines, stark mountains, rich green plains and the dramatic emptiness of the outback. In two centuries, man has added his imprint of modern civilisation with townships and cities, which reflect the nation's pioneering and colourful history, as well as its contemporary pace and achievements. Australia has a sufficiently short recent history to be able to retain much of its past, and each town has remnants from its early days, whether it be a beautiful gothic church built by men wearing shackles, workings of an old gold mine or a sleepy country inn from coachi ng days. At the other end of the time scale are such marvels as Sydney Opera House. The continent's early inhabitants have left their rich and complex heritage in hundreds of art galleries and rock carvings, some of which go back thousands of years."
