Winter view of Canberra city from Mount Ainslie

Home to more than 340,000 people, Canberra is one of the world's few planned cities - a city in a park, with golden autumn leaves and glorious spring blooms. Surrounded by native bushland, Canberra is perfect for getting back to nature.

But hidden beneath the leafy surrounds is a thriving modern city with stylish restaurants, hip bars, great shopping, fun for the kids, world class schools and universities, and a busy calendar of events and festivals. The surrounding region offers more than 30 boutique wineries, historic townships, stunning coastlines and the famous Snowy Mountains.
