The best!!!

This has to be one of the finest museums in the world .... it is full of interesting exhibitions and has a great sense of place.

Surprisingly Touching
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/09/05
The Australian War Memorial was really informative and I found it a calm, serene place to be. One of the dresses that someone made during the war which was on display was really pretty and the models of people from the Vietnam are really cool!
