Unit 2 Iconic Attractions
Australia, located to the south of the equator, is famous for its iconic creatures and grand sites.There are a lot of delicious open-air barbecues, bakeries, fast-food joints, butcher shops and restaurants that offer some of the premier food experiences in the world.The kangaroo has a wide distribution throughout the country.Baby kangaroos live temporarily in the pouch for a phase of seven or eight months. At licensed zoos, koalas hanging onto tree trunks can be touched for only a little time and on a limited frequency of occasions.
A primitive mammal with a unique biology, the duck-billed platypus will lay eggs in a nest, which can hatch in ten days. It has the capacity to find food by using electrical sensors in its bill, which only a handful of animals in the world can do. The straightforward prime minister sponsors a campaign to protect wild animals’ safety and liberty in their natural domain. In a word, Australia is an ideal getaway visited by numerous travelers at peak seasons. Australia’s tourism slogan is as follows:There’s nothing like Australia.
