The Korean War Memorial is at the start of the park where I walk my dog so we pass it often but seems to always be kept in tip top condition

There are a handful of iconic landmarks that are synonymous with some of the world’s greatest cities, and Sydney’s eggshell-shaped opera house is certainly one of them. Although the Sydney Opera House is the heartbeat of the city, Sydney has a wealth of other attractions to offer its visitors. The city is notorious for its renowned beaches (you’ve probably heard of Bondi Beach and Coogee Beach), its famed vineyards, beautiful outdoors (The Blue Mountains will blow your mind), energetic nightlife, and of course--its unique wildlife which can be enjoyed in one of the city’s acclaimed zoos. Sydney isn’t just an absolutely must-visit destination, it also offers easy access to the rest of Australia and nearby New Zealand. And in case you like it so much and think it could be a good place to relocate to, we have good news for you! Sydney is regularly ranked amongst the top cities in the world to live in.

Korean War 1950 – 1953 On June 25 1950, the armed forces of North Korea launched an unprovoked attack on South Korea crossing the 38th parallel, the dividing line between the two Koreas, beginning a war that would last 3 years and claim millions of lives. In response, the fledgling United Nations authorised the international community to send a multinational force to restore peace and freedom to the Korean Peninsula. Twenty-one nations contributed forces and medical support to the United Nations command, including Australia. After a series of early advances and setbacks, the Korean War reached a stalemate. Following lengthy peace negotiations, a ceasefire was agreed and hostilities ended on 27 July 1953. At the war's end, the United Nations forces counted some 40,000 dead, including 340 Australians. More than 130,000 South Korean soldiers also lost their lives. Australian forces continued to serve in South Korea until 1957, during which time a further eighteen Australians died. This memorial honours the Korean War troops of the Commonwealth of Australia and the Republic of Korea who served, suffered and gave away their lives in the cause of freedom. Their sacrifice was not in vain. We will remember them.
