  Sandgate, Queensland on TRAVELSNAPZ.COM - Travel the world for just a few clicks!
This is probably one reason the old Queenslanders (lovely old stilted wooden houses with wide verandahs) have been given a new lease of life.
The climate of Queensland gave rise to the practice of building houses on stilts to let the cool breezes penetrate.
When the tide runs out, the mud flats and channels appear, but the close proximity of Sandgate to the bay areas means that there is a nice cooling breeze coming off the water, and it's a good place to relax after the frustration and pressure of a day in the city.

On the other hand, the tropical north-eastern section of Queensland is a land of many rivers draining an area of 970,000 square kilometres with an average rainfall of 790 millimetres.
