Low-cost car hire Canberra - from 10€/day

Canberra, Australia's capital, is more commonly thought of as a political hub than a tourist attraction. Nonetheless, despite its position in the country's interior and lesser tourist profile, the city boasts a surprising number of things to see and do, including fascinating museums, governmental buildings, and breathtaking vistas from the surrounding hills. A rental car will also allow you to visit some of the natural preserves that are only a short drive from Canberra.

Best vacation spots and activities

The Triangle of Parliament. This is where Australia's Parliament House, the High Court, and other key legislative and judicial institutions are located. While some of these structures may only be seen from the outside, others, such as the former parliament house, now serve as the Museum of Australian Democracy. The National Gallery of Australia, the National Portrait Gallery, the Questacon science and technology center, and other attractions are also located in this region of the city.

The National Film and Sound Archive This museum, one of the most intriguing cultural institutions in the country, houses an outstanding collection of TV, radio, film, gaming, and digital art records. While it would take millennia to become acquainted with all of the stored content, taking a self-guided tour is a pleasant experience. Exhibitions and film screenings are also held at the archive on a regular basis.

National Botanic Gardens of Australia While Canberra is close to a variety of nature reserves and national parks, the National Botanic Gardens provide an opportunity to experience nature without leaving the capital city. The gardens, which house the world's biggest collection of living Australian flora, are a fantastic location to spend a day among the greenery or to attend one of the events or performances that take place there. The National Arboretum, National Zoo and Aquarium, and Canberra Reptile Zoo are further noteworthy nature-related attractions in Canberra.
