Canberra, the nation’s capital and also better known as a city ‘scattered through a park’, offers besides a lot of greenness and lakes, also some interesting sights, monuments and museums.
Stroll through the city and have a look at some impressive historical and architectural buildings, such as the High Court and the Old Parliament House. For those who want to spot rare birds, it might be a good idea to plan a day trip to the Tidbinbilla Nature Reserve (+02 6205 1233) that is only some kilometers away from the city Centre of Canberra.
