Geelongs waterfront Carousel.
Geelong’s beautiful waterfront carousel is truly one of the jewels of Geelong; it is one of the “must see” attractions for any visitor to our magnificent city. Proudly overlooking the harbour with spectacular views out to Corio Bay, the modern sail like steel and glass pavilion glistens in the sun and is a striking focal point of our waterfront precinct.
Inside things get even more memorable, and some say even magical. The pavilion houses an extremely rare and beautiful Armitage Herschell Carousel dating back to 1892. Magnificently restored to its original glory, the carousel is complete with 36 horses and two delightful chariots. The historic carousel is one of the few left in the world, and it is not hard to see that ours is regarded by many as the best still in use. Original public domain image from Flickr
