Anzac War Memorial, Pool of Reflection

The Anzac War Memorial stands in Hyde Park South. This view is from the northern side, across the Pool of Reflection. The Art Deco building and pool was built as a memorial to the Australian Imperial Force of World War 1.

    1. Agreed. I think it was meant to remind us that we should stand quietly and reflect on the tragic slaughters that took place in our grandfathers' generation. Very poignant.
