The nation’s Capital, with a population of over 340,000, Canberra is Australia's largest inland city, just 280 km south-west of Sydney and an excellent gateway to the NSW ski fields, just 3 hours away. An entirely purpose-built, planned city, Canberra was inspired by the “garden city movement” and incorporates significant areas of green space, earning it the title “bush capital”. No other city combines the administrative grandeur of Parliament House, the National Art Gallery, War Memorial and National Museum, with features like Lake Burley Griffin, Black Mountain and celebrated cuisine, culture and outdoor activities.
