Description: Journey through Australia's purpose-built capital, from its origins on the ancient Limestone Plains to its transformation into a thriving modern city. This exploration traces the bold competition that shaped Canberra, Walter Burley Griffin's visionary geometric design, and the democratic institutions and national collections that give the city its civic heart. Along the way, discover the lakes, hills, and distinctive seasons that frame daily life in one of the world's most deliberately planned capitals.
