An Underground church named after the Catacombs in Rome. A place of serenity where week by week we tell others the great news that Jesus still forgives sin for those who seek him.
Nice experience visiting this underground church in Coober Pedy. Loved the structure & cool climate inside. Fascinating information provided by our Oasis tour guide. Was so interesting that I forgot to take pictures!

As we approached the property we were met with 3 witches hats and a Great Dane barking at us. Not to be deterred we approach and the dog turned out to be super friendly to the point that he became our tour guide. It turns out the dog is owned by the caretaker who rarely makes an appearance. There is an honor box inside the entrance and that's it. You are free to wander through Harry's home at your leisure. This dugout has some weird and wacky displays and after reading more about Crocodile Harry they were no real surprise. Definitely worth a look as I can't say I have seen anything else like it on my world travels!

We travelled through Coober Pedy a few years ago (so I didn't go in September 2019) and went to see this fence. We have seen the fence from the start/finish in Queensland and many places in-between. My goal is to see the end/start in South Australia. I have been fascinated by the story of the Dog/Dingo fence for many years. Driving out to the dog fence in Coober Pedy is an amazing drive with the breakaways and the moonscape looking scenery along the way. If you are interested in the Dog/Dingo fence this is a must see

Worth driving up to the lookout to see this "big" structure at close hand. The plaque says the original was destoyed in a cyclone in 1987, but elsewhere I read that it was destroyed by fire. Took us a while to find the road up, but Coober Pedy is a small place, so we found it eventually. Great views.
