The Twelve Apostles, Great Ocean Road (Victoria, Australia)

May 9, 2016 by BollywoodPresents Team

The Great Ocean Road in Victoria, Australia is home to several spectacular sights, but the 12 Apostles is the best among the lot. The Twelve Apostles (called so because they stand tall along the shore) is basically a collection of limestone stacks off the shore of the Port Campbell National Park.

The site is a popular tourist attraction with tourists from around the world coming to witness the splendour, the myth and the mystery of the 12 apostles. The road to the 12 apostles is breath-taking with dramatic, rugged cliffs and panoramic views.

Watch the beautiful Bollywood song ‘Ae Nazneen Suno Na’ from Dil Hi Dil Mein (composed by A.R. Rahman) which was filmed in this location.
