My World Tuesday

Pictures were taken during our visit to Royal Botanic Garden in Sydney last month. While being there, I grabbed the chance to take glimpses of the Government House. It was built between 1837-1845, designed by a British architect, Edward Blore, who was also involved in the architectural design of the Buckingham Palace. It was designed in a Gothic Revival Style. The Government House has been home to 27 Governors from 1846 to 1996 and this time, it is opened daily to the public with guided tours available.
