The Big Banana, the Big Prawn, the Big Golden Guitar. Australia is known for its big things.
But recently, it's a "mini" thing that has been getting all the attention.
"Mini Australias", which are small islands in the shape of Australia, have been going viral on TikTok with content creators scouring Google Maps to find the next big little sensation.
One viral video with four million views zoomed in on an Australia-shaped island at Barwon Valley Fun Park in Geelong, Victoria.
Geelong Mayor Stephanie Asher confirmed there were mainland and Tasmania-shaped islands surrounded by a fly-fishing pond at the park.
"We're surprised this little island in Geelong has made it to TikTok," Ms Asher said.
"It's believed the island was constructed by Barwon Water when they managed the Barwon Valley Fun Park in the 1970s or early 1980s."
But wait, there's more!
Another miniature version of Australia exists on a private property in Old Bar on the NSW Mid Coast.
The current owner Jack Addison said the Australia-shaped island takes up two acres of the eight-acre property and takes about five minutes to walk around.
"The guy that used to own it [the property] years and years ago designed it to look like Australia. It's just a grass flat now with a dam around it, like a moat," Mr Addison said.
"He actually died just before he finished it. He had a heart attack and never got to see it all finished. Apparently he was wheel barrowing a load of dirt up the hill to where the house is and had a heart attack and died half way up. It was all but finished but not quite."

Mr Addison said he currently camps and has parties on the island with family and friends, who have their own favourite spots on the island.
"My dad always goes over and camps in North Queensland because that's his favourite part of Australia. Down in Victoria there's a shady spot I've got so that's good throughout the day," he said.
Golden Map of Australia
The "Golden Map of Australia" is located at the Top End Safari Camp in Bynoe, 46 kilometres south-west of Darwin, in the Northern Territory.
A partial-moat outlines the shape of the Australian mainland, although the moat ends in the Great Australian Bight to connect it with the rest of the property.
The Golden Map can be viewed from above during helicopter tours at Top End Safari Camp, which is run by Outback Wrangler presenter Matt Wright.
