630 AU - Fraser Island (1992)

Brief Description

"Fraser Island lies just off the east coast of Australia. At 122 km long, it is the largest sand island in the world. Majestic remnants of tall rainforest growing on sand and half the world’s perched freshwater dune lakes are found inland from the beach. The combination of shifting sand-dunes, tropical rainforests and lakes makes it an exceptional site."

弗雷泽岛

"弗雷泽岛与澳大利亚东海岸隔海相望,长122公里,是世界上最大的沙岛。从海滩往岛内延伸,除了长在沙土之中的高大茂密的热带雨林,还有世界上半数的淡水沙丘悬湖。移动的沙丘、热带雨林和湖泊一起构成了这个岛屿独一无二的景观。"
