Cockington Green Garden, Canberra

We went to Australian capital, Canberra, yesterday.Then we went to Cockington Green Garden. This Garden has miniature buildings which are the replica to the famous monuments in the world. I saw it on TV before I immigrated to Australia and then I would not imagine I would ever walk in this garden.

Below you can see the pictures:
