| 説明 | Today Ingham has 4,500 residents and over 10,000 in the district. The major industry of the town is sugar which employs around 13% of the workforce in either growing or milling sugar. Although only 13% of the population was born in Italy almost 50% of the population is of Italian ancestry. Consequently 42% of the population nominate Catholicism as their religion. Ingham is located on the two major transport routes between Brisbane and Cairns- the railway and the Bruce Highway. Tourism is important to the economy and most visitors start at the TYTO Visitor Centre and the wetlands. The complex is named after the endangered Tyto Longimembris Owl commonly known as the Australasian grass owl. In Australia it inhabits tall swampy grassland and wetlands only in Queensland. This surprising complex incoldues wetlands, a library and regional art gallery and Visitor Centre with displays on the history and culture of the region. From the Visitor Centre one can walk on elevated walkways above the wetlands and you can climb the 11 metre high bird watch and lookout. Along the pathway to the regional gallery and library is machinery telling the story of the sugar industry. The wetlands are home to a great variety of birds and expect to see wallabies, tortoises etc. The regional art gallery showcases the work of north Queensland artists with changing exhibitions. |
