#HTE



The construction of Parliament House in Canberra, Australia involved the removal of the top half of Capital Hill (the mound on which the structure was built). After the project was completed, much of the displaced earth was replaced on top of the building where a lush, green lawn now grows. While much of Canberra was designed by by Walter Burley Griffin in 1913, this specific complex opened in 1988, is designed to look like two boomerangs, and contains approximately 4,400 rooms.
