7 Pictures of Australia

For at least 40,000 years before European settlement in the late 18th century, Australia was inhabited by indigenous Australians.

It’s a very dry continent, its interior has one of the lowest rainfalls in the world. Most of the population is concentrated along the seaboard. The beaches are beautiful, and the Great Barrier Reef is listed as a World Heritage Site.
The best known landmarks are the Sydney Opera House and Uluru. But Australia has so much more to offer… The Rainforest, the unique fauna and flora, the Great Ocean Road, botanic gardens, national parks… Let's see these amazing photos of Australia!
