🇦🇺Australian war memorial🇦🇺 🪙Royal Australian mint.🪙 🍷🍸Eat & Drinks🍷🍸 🌥🌸Cockington Green Gardens🌸🌥 one day trip from Sydney to Canberra #canberra ##funs #joy Great food great brews. Go to place in Canberra for a special beer. I particularly enjoyed the Descent22 Imperial Stout. Rich vanilla flavour aged in foeder barrels with a hint of hops. At 10% it’s not a session ale but great for a winter’s night in Canberra. Very generous serve for a strong beer too! Combined with the tasty food menu it made for a great night out (spicy chicken wings). The atmosphere upstairs makes the place even better.

A must-visit for reflection and understanding.

I struck gold on my recent trip to Australia! I discovered the incredibly underrated and breathtakingly beautiful Canberra, and I just have to share it with everyone. Here's my super detailed guide – save it now! Itinerary Day 1: Arrive at Canberra Airport in the morning and take the airport express to the hotel to check in. After a short rest, take a taxi to Lake Burley Griffin. The lake is crystal clear, and the Captain Cook Memorial Water Jet is spectacular, shooting a 147m-high water column. A 2–3-hour stroll around the lake offers stunning city and lake views – pure bliss. Day 2: Take a 30-minute bus ride to the National Gallery of Australia. The gallery boasts a rich collection of Australian and international art, from Indigenous to modern art. Immerse yourself in the charm of art for 3–4 hours. Day 3: Take a 20-minute taxi ride to the Australian War Memorial. The museum showcases artifacts and information related to Australia's involvement in various wars – a truly moving experience (allow 2–3 hours). In the afternoon, visit Old Parliament House for a 1–2-hour stroll through Australian political history. Highlights The sunset over Lake Burley Griffin is simply stunning! In the evening, the sky turns orange-red, and the setting sun shimmers on the lake, creating a picturesque scene with the surrounding buildings. Every photo is a masterpiece. At the National Gallery of Australia, the Indigenous Australian art section is the most captivating. The unique dot paintings and bark paintings showcase the ancient and mysterious Indigenous culture, making it hard to tear yourself away. Food Recommendations I highly recommend The Cupping Room in the city center. Their Aussie brunch is a must-try. The eggs Benedict with Canadian bacon, perfectly runny poached eggs, rich hollandaise sauce, and perfectly toasted English muffins are incredibly satisfying. Their flat white is also excellent, with a rich coffee flavor and beautiful latte art. Coffee lovers, don't miss it! Accommodation Experience I stayed at Oaks on Lonsdale, which is conveniently located near restaurants and supermarkets. The hotel environment is quiet and comfortable, with spacious and bright rooms and complete facilities. The front desk staff were very welcoming, check-in was quick, and they even recommended fun places nearby. Excellent value for money. Things to Note Book your visit to the National Gallery of Australia in advance on their website to avoid peak crowds. Canberra experiences significant temperature differences between day and night, so bring a light jacket. Also, remember that Australians drive on the left side of the road, so be extra careful when crossing the street. Canberra is truly a place full of surprises, from its natural beauty and art to its unique cuisine. I'm sure you'll fall in love with it too. Plan your trip now!
