Launceston - Church
by imstress
Although Launceston is a very small town, it has lots of churches.
During our evening walk, we came across this beautiful church located in dowtown Launceston.
The church building is magnificant and tt has a beautiful bricks wall in red. The lovey lavendar garden add a sweet aroma to this place of worship.

"The city..................."
Situated in the Tamar Valley, its only a short 45 minute flight from Melbourne.
A big attraction here, is Cataract Gorge. Its a short walk from the city centre. Theres a large suspension bridge over the gorge, and a single span chairlift. A swimming pool, or for more adventure, abseiling and white water rafting, we just enjoyed the pleasant walk.
"The outskirts........................"
Trips up the Tamar Valley following the Tamar river are full of beautiful scenery, this is one of our favorite spots in Tasmania.
