Anzac Parade
The red gravel central strip of this visually powerful landmark was originally made from crushed Canberra house bricks, chosen, in part, to echo the crunch made by military boots during a parade.
Anzac Parade's dark eucalypt 'walls' are created by Victorian Blue Gum. Central planter boxes are sewn with native New Zealand Hebe 'Otari Delight' to symbolise the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps connection.

“A short but important walk”
There are some very important and beautifully designed war memorials along ANZAC Parade, well worth a look.
Also great views towards both the Australian War Memorial and Parliament House.

“This is the icing on the cake after visiting the War Memorial”
These memorials are worth the visit, and the walk. All the memorials are dedicated to Australian and New Zealand service people who served, fought and died in war. Very moving tributes to all these...

“Moving memorials”
The walk along the memorials was a privilege to do - all different and attentive to the group or moment in history that they were remembering and honouring.
