Chinatown in Canberra
ZzhweieiCanberra's Chinatown doesn't have a memorial archway like the ones in Melbourne and Sydney. It's just a street full of Chinese restaurants. It's not very long. There are many restaurants of various flavors from the north to the south to the northwest of China. There are also several supermarkets, and there are a few scattered Indian and Thai restaurants. There are parking spaces on both sides, but it seems that parking spaces are quite tight.
Lake Burley Griffin
徐徐徐霞客RrLake Griffin, Canberra, although the lake is large, but it is an artificial lake. This lake is located by many famous local universities and some libraries and art galleries. It is quite romantic. Many people will sit here fishing in the evening.
National Museum of Australia
徐徐徐霞客RrThe National Museum of Australia, near this museum stands an art gallery and some museums. I feel that if you come here, you can combine several nearby attractions into a day trip. Personally, I feel that this museum has a very good sense of design and is not so boring, because its design is very abstract and forward-looking.
National Gallery of Australia

From iconic masterpieces to contemporary works, it's a visual feast that sparks creativity and appreciation. A must-visit for art enthusiasts and cultural seekers alike.
Questacon - National Science and Technology Centre
梦梦露夫人The Canberra National Science Museum is really well run. We spent half a day here to visit and learn. The two children have come here more than once.
Using sound, light and electricity to interpret the strange phenomena of nature has taught us a lot of knowledge.
Australian War Memorial
__TX***ypI went there for the Last Post Ceremony (it's free but you still have to book tickets online) and it was quite interesting. The ticket to the ceremony doesn't grant you access to the other parts of the museum but if you have enough time and are interested in Australia's war and conflict history it looked well displayed.The War Memorial is also a great starting point for a hike up to the Mount Ainslie Lookout with a beautiful view over Canberra - especially great during sunset.
Diplomatic Missions in Canberra
Ppxy0705The embassy district in Canberra has embassies around the world, about 40 countries, and our Chinese embassies are also located here, very atmospheric. Almost every embassy here has its own national building characteristics, it can be said that it is a display place of all nations architecture worth visiting.
National Capital Exhibition
徐徐徐霞客RrThe Australian Capital Exhibition Hall, which covers a super large area and is the largest exhibition hall in the area. If you go in, you will feel very atmospheric. If you are interested in Australia's history and development, you can come here to visit. Overall, it takes about 4 to 5 hours.
