At ellaslist, we're big fans of new playgrounds, so when we hear that one is claiming to be Australia's largest playground AND the largest indoor playground in the Southern Hemisphere, our ears perk up!

The site in question is the former Bunnings Underwood in Brisbane (sorry Sydney and Melbourne folks!) which was completely gutted to make room for a mega family entertainment centre - Area 51.
