Canberra
A capital designed from a blank paddock by an American architect who never got to see it finished, a war memorial that treats its subject with real gravity, and a lake at the centre of it all that the whole city was built around.
The best time to visit Canberra is Mar–May, Sep–Nov, when typical daytime highs reach about 19°C (66°F).
