One of only two capital cities in the world that have been built to a premeditated design, Canberra is rather eerily symmetrical. Placed about its nice, planned combinations of straight and curving streets are the old and new Parliament Houses, the National Gallery, and the National Museum.

Those who visit Canberra find beautiful galleries and museums clustered around a lake and cupped in bushland.

Suggested Itineraries in Canberra

The Celebrate Canberra Festival, held over 10 days in March, marks the city's birthday with music, food, a mardi gras, displays, a raft race and a parade. March also brings the huge National Folk Festival to Canberra. Spring is celebrated with the Floriade Festival, when Commonwealth Park becomes a riot of floral colour. Canberra is best avoided at New Year when the Street Machine Summernats brings hot-rods and wet t-shirt competitions to the nation's capital.
