Introduction to Canberra, the Capital of Australia
Canberra is the capital city of Australia, located between Sydney and Melbourne, and is the political and administrative center of the country. The city, planned in the early 20th century, is not the largest but is known for its unique urban planning, rich cultural landmarks and natural beauty. Iconic buildings such as Parliament House, the Australian War Memorial and the National Gallery showcase the nation's history and art, while Lake Griffin's Captain Cook Fountain is a city highlight. Canberra has four distinct seasons, with flowers blooming in the spring and forests in the fall, making it a pleasant place to live for a population of around 400,000 people. As the seat of the federal government, the city is home to many national museums and libraries, and is an important window on Australian politics and culture.
