<div id="ygrps-yiv-1559619588">The main N-S highway in Sumatra also has the line painted on it and a small<br/>
arch over the road. Tourist buses stop there for photos, but no major<br/>
monument.<br/>
<br/>
The tourist information centre in Rockhampton, Qld, sits on the Tropic of<br/>
Capricorn, and a large sundial-like monument stands outside.<br/>
<br/>
A roadsign on the east coast highway (route 1) of the South Island, NZ,<br/>
locates 45degrees, for the many people travelling from the equator to the<br/>
pole.<br/>
