Australia’s third-largest city, Brisbane is the hub of Queensland culture, offering a peek at the past and a glimpse into the future. Visit the historic Windmill and Old Commissariat Store, built by convicts in 1828, or fast-forward to the present (and beyond) with a trip to the new Gallery of Modern Art. Mingle with locals atop Mount Coot-tha, cruise the Brisbane River to South Bank’s sandy beach on the City Cat and make sure to fill the cuteness quota at Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary, home to koalas and kangaroos.

This church is beautifully maintained with stained glass windows & polished timber. The volunteer staff are very helpful & there is a lot of information about it's history. During WWII a lot of war brides, like an aunt married US servicemen here. For a bird's eye view, go to the top of the clock tower in the City Hall.
St Augustine's Anglican (Episcopal) Church, built in 1919, is Brisbane's first war memorial church, with stunning Bustard stained-glass windows. The upper church is open at service times (Sun 7am-11am, Tue 7am-8am, Wed 10am-11am, Thu 7am-8am). The Chapel of All Souls (incorporating the columbarium) on the lower level is open 24/7. Visitors can use the church lawns for picnics and recreation.
