📍 National Arboretum Canberra|A resonance of greenery and architecture
National Arboretum Canberra, located in Canberra, the capital of Australia, is an oasis that combines nature, ecology, art and architectural aesthetics. On this vast land of 250 hectares, rare and endangered tree species from more than 100 countries around the world are planted, with a total of 104 exclusive forests, presenting a spectacular green landscape map.
🌳 Step into the green forest of the world
The park has many trails and viewpoints. Starting from the Village Centre, you can walk into forests of different styles such as the "Himalayan Cedar Forest", "Cherry Blossom Forest", and "Oak Avenue". Each forest area is designed and planned according to the origin of the tree species, with signs and introductions along the way, making every step full of knowledge and surprises.
🌿 Village Centre: Dialogue between Architecture and Landscape
The appearance of this silver-white modern building is like spreading wings. It not only has a magnificent panoramic view, but also is the heart of the park. There is a Café, an information center and the famous National Bonsai & Penjing Collection, which exhibits many miniature tree landscapes from Australia and Asia, which are so exquisite that people stop to admire.
🚴♂️ A paradise for parents and hikers
You can choose to rent a bicycle or walk along the gentle slope to the sculpture "Wide Brown Land" or "Nest III" viewing point on the top of the hill to overlook the entire city and Black Mountain. Children can release their energy in POD Playground, an adventure playground with creative design.
🌤 Best time to visit and tips
The pleasant weather in spring and autumn is the best time to explore this green field. The park is free to enter, but it is recommended to arrive early to enjoy a full half-day to full-day trip. The Village Center and the cafe are open from 9:00 to 16:00, and the entire park is open from 7 am.
