Parks and Preservation: Oceania
Search online for a preservation area, historic place, or national park in the region of Oceania. These could be historic public buildings, national parks, wildlife preserves, museums, monuments, memorials, tourist destinations, etc. Use the park/museum/reserve’s OFFICIAL website (not a trip advisor page or something) to answer the questions below. Try to find one with a lot of information to make it easier to get the necessary details. This doesn’t have to be super structured, the objective is to get you exploring a little bit and zoom in on a place in Oceania. Give us a bit of a tour! Have fun with it!
Include at least one photo of the place and a map that shows its location in your post. (How to embed image tutorial)
