Canberra

Canberra is the capital city of Australia, known for its wide boulevards, planned layout, lakes and national institutions. At its heart is Lake Burley Griffin, a large man-made lake that provides scenic waterfront spaces, pathways and views that change throughout the day, creating a tranquil contrast to the urban precincts around it.

The city has a unique blend of urban and natural landscapes. The National Carillon stands on Aspen Island within the lake, and its elegant silhouette against the water and skyline is one of Canberra’s most photographed features. Residential districts, bushland parks and expansive green spaces all flow into the wider setting of the Australian Capital Territory’s rolling terrain.

For panoramic views over Canberra, the summit at Mount Ainslie Lookout offers sweeping horizons across the city grid, surrounding hills and the lake below. The climb up to the lookout is a favourite for both locals and visitors seeking a birds-eye perspective of Australia’s capital and the beauty of its designed landscape.
