About the Canberra Region Region

ACT and Canberra.

Canberra is a city that was purpose built to be the Nation’s capital, so in effect you have the sophisticated seat of Government, the Australian Capital Territory, sitting peacefully in the middle of rural NSW. The city is surrounded by Black Mountain and Mount Ainslie to the north, and by Namadgi National Park to the South. These are all worthwhile destinations for those who want to see the beautiful countryside surrounding the nation’s capital.

The city was built according the designs of architect Walter Burley Griffin, who envisaged a modern city neatly arranged around an artificial lake. While cities rarely grow according to plan, Canberra has kept its low-key spaciousness, with suburbs radiating out from its classical central plan.

Also within the triangle is Commonwealth Park, where Floriade festival is held in the springtime, Old Parliament House and Questacon, the National Science and Technology Centre, where you can see animatronic dinosaurs or experience an earthquake.

The Australian War Memorial sits at the end of Anzac Parade, directly in line with Parliament House. A central court is lined with panels listing the names of those who died in action, and this court leads into Hall of Memory with its golden dome and stained glass windows.

Further afield, there is Royal Australian Mint, and the Australian Institute of Sport, both of which conduct tours, the Zoo and Aquarium, the National Museum and Mt Stromlo Observatory.
