Impressions of my former home
I used to live within a 5 minute walk of the Wheel of Brisbane and the Nepalese Peace Pagoda - opposite the cinemas in Southbank. Sorry that I couldn't be there during your visit, but I left Brisbane in December last year. I reckon Southbank is definitely the best part of Brisbane to both live and visit. Interestingly, the Nepalese Peace Pagoda was going to be dismantled after Expo 88, but a public fundraising effort saw the Pagoda preserved and moved to its current location. During Expo it was located much closer toward the Goodwill Bridge, but not on the river. The Pagoda and the Piazza are the only two remaining buildings at Southbank built specifically for Expo 88.
