不是之一,就是第一。如果是之一,那就是全世界最早的几个国家公园之一了。从生态角度看,皇家国家公园的生境相当多样,距离悉尼又近,确实非常难得。
是第一,
全世界第二.
Royal National Park
Australia's first national park, was proclaimed on 26 April 1879, south of Sydney in New South Wales. It is now known as the Royal National Park. It was the second such park to be declared in the world, the first being Yellowstone National Park in the United States of America.
Originally named 'The National Park', it was renamed 'Royal National Park' when Queen Elizabeth II visited it in 1955.
In the early days of the park, it was used more as a place where residents of Sydney could come to relax and amuse themselves than for the conservation and study of native wildlife. A dance hall was even built there as late as the 1940s, and earlier, land was cleared for large areas of lawns and a train line was set up between Loftus and Audley, two towns within the Park.
