Panorama of the eastern aspect of Lexington Station and its gardens in Moyston, Victoria, Australia. The homestead of this historic pastoral station was built in 1851 by Horatio Wills with bricks made on the property. At the time of its construction the building had sweeping views of the Grampians ranges which are now partially obscured by magnificent gardens established in the 70s.
Victoria is Australia's second smallest State and covers only 3% of Australia's land area but has the second highest population of all States and Territories. Victoria's mainland and islands have a total length of 2,512 kilometres coastline which is about 4.2% of Australia's 59,736 kilometres of coastline. Australia is the driest inhabited continent and Victoria is no exception although the state capital Melbourne has the reputation to have 4 seasons in one day. Victoria is located in the southeast of mainland Australia and includes the most southern point on mainland Australia at Wilsons Promontory National Park.
