The Australian Soldier Park, in Beersheba, Israel is dedicated to the memory of the Australian Light Horse regiments,〔(The park at Mapa )〕 that captured the town from the Ottoman Empire during World War I. The park was established in 2008 on a large area, and is maintained by a team of its own employees. On its eastern corner there is a memorial statue of a mounted Australian lighthorseman as well as documentary materiel on aluminum boards, written in three languages. The park also includes an area for picnics, gardens, artificial waterfalls, a maze, and a large playground under a circuses-tent-like shade that protects visitors from the desert sunlight. Most of the playground facilities are fully accessible for children who use wheelchairs. It includes slides one can climb to via a wheelchair ramp, a carousel with two regular benches and two secured places for wheelchairs, hammock and swings one can easily use without sitting straightly and without holding tight, and so on. The handicap parking is located in the middle of the park, much closer to the facilities than the rest of the parking spaces. The currency for the park establishment summed up to three million dollars, was contributed by an Australian fund,〔(The park at Tayarut Index )〕 and by the Fund for Beersheba Development.〔(The park at Pratt Foundation )〕 ==Gallery== File:PikiWiki Israel 10789 Park of the Australian Soldier.JPG|The accessible side array under the shade File:Möbius strip IMG 0765.JPG|Möbius strip-like device in the park File:PikiWiki Israel 10785 Park of the Australian Soldier.JPG|Advancing the playground File:Maze, The Australian Solder Park, Beersheba, Israel IMG 0718.JPG|Advancing the maze 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Australian Soldier Park」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
