Get around
Canberra is designed for cars and very spread out, so renting a car is the most practical option, particularly if you intend to venture beyond the city center. Public transport is usable but does not cover all points of interest, while renting a bicycle is a great alternative if the weather cooperates. Walking is not a practical option for most visitors.

thumb|250px|Old Parliament House in 2012 Canberra, as the national capital of Australia, contains a lot of government buildings, and many of them are often open for tours. By far the most significant one is Parliament House in Capital Hill, but other important buildings include the High Court of Australia, Old Parliament House, the Government House, the Royal Australian Mint and The Lodge, though not all of them are always open to the public. There are other buildings that are of national importance too, such as the National Library of Australia and the Australian War Memorial.
Most of the time, much of what to see in Canberra is located in South Canberra, or to be more specific, particularly more centred within Parliamentary Triangle which contains the High Court, National Archives, National Gallery, National Library, National Portrait Gallery, both the current Parliament House and the Old Parliament House and the science museum of Questacon.
The other parts of South Canberra don't have as many points of interest, but they are nevertheless still great sights worth visiting. The most notable sight in South Canberra outside Parliamentary Triangle is the Royal Australian Mint.
North Canberra too has several important sights, the most important of them all being the Australian War Memorial though there are many military sites in the east of North Canberra, particularly on Anzac Avenue.

See the districts articles for more listings. thumb|250px|right|Lake Burley Griffin Ride Canberra's Mountain Bike Trails: There are several locations around Canberra to ride mountain bicycles, many of which are considered some of the best in Australia. See Canberra Off Road Cyclists (CORC) for locations. Canberra is also home to the largest 24-hour Mountain Bike Race in the world, held in early October each year. Helpfully between Civic and the War Memorial, walk through the Heritage-listed suburb of Reid. Observe the houses with leafy surrounds, the wide roads, little walking paths and recreation areas, in one of the oldest untouched Canberran suburbs. As (some) locals would say: “as Burley Griffin intended”. Explore Tidbinbilla Nature Reserve, which is about a 40-minute drive south of Canberra via Tuggeranong Parkway and Tharwa Drive. There are a large number of walks which offer stunning views of the Brindabella Mountains. You can also take Ranger-guided walks or have fun with the hands on displays such as the interactive computer program on Tidbinbilla's bird species and look at the live animal displays. The gift shop sells an interesting range of clothes, toys, books, cards and souvenirs. Coffee and light refreshments are also available. Go tobogganing in Go wine tasting in the Wineries around Canberra (most are outside of the ACT but all very close to Canberra). They are described as cool climate wines and some are very well known and regarded. Try Jeir Creek, Gallaghe…

キャンベラ（Canberra：[ˈkænbərə, kænˈbɛrə])）は、オーストラリアの首都。オーストラリア首都特別地域（ACT）に属し、シドニーの南西280キロメートル、メルボルンの北東660キロメートルに位置している。人口は約37万人で、オーストラリア国内では8番目、同国内陸部では最大の都市である。キャンベラの市民を英語で、Canberranと呼ぶ。 1901年のオーストラリア独立に際し、同国の二大都市であるシドニーとメルボルンの間で首都機能の誘致をめぐる争いがあった。そのため、妥協案として新首都が建設されることになり、1908年、キャンベラがオーストラリアの首都建設地に選ばれた。他のオーストラリアの都市とは異なり、キャンベラは最初から首都として設計され、建設された歴史を持つ。キャンベラの都市設計においては、国際的なコンペティションが実施され、都市計画が作成された。 キャンベラの建設に際しては、非効率な官僚機構のため都市の発展は大きく遅れることになった。 第二次世界大戦後、ロバート・メンジーズ首相がキャンベラの整備を指揮し、国立首都発展委員会（NCDC）が設立され開発が進んだ。キャンベラには自治権が与えられているが、オーストラリア連邦政府は、NCDCの後継のNCA、を通じて、キャンベラの都市開発に大きな影響力を保持している。 キャンベラには、オーストラリア連邦議会、（ザ・ロッジ）、オーストラリア高等裁判所などの政府機関がある他、百以上の大使館が立地している。首都機能以外にも、オーストラリア戦争記念館、オーストラリア国立大学、オーストラリア国立スポーツ研究所、オーストラリア国立美術館、オーストラリア国立博物館、オーストラリア国立図書館といった多くの社会的、文化的な施設がある。オーストラリア陸軍の教育機関として、があり、オーストラリア国防大学もキャンベラにある。
