Madam Jacqueline is Going to Look around Canberra Alone.........
Let's hear it for one of Canberra's most controversial pieces of architecture....the National Museum of Australia. Notably, one of the 15 most amazing & innovative museum designs all over the world.
Fifty thousand years of Australian history fit into this colorful museum, which architect Howard Raggatt modeled on the theme of knotted ropes meant to connect the different strands of the country’s people and history. The museum entrance acts as the center of the knot, and one of its trailing ropes is the Uluru line with its 98-foot roller-coaster-like loop. The exterior of the semicircular museum itself is covered in aluminum panels with words written on them in Braille.
