Capital Hill Travel Guide

Canberra

A large white building with a central tower, surrounded by a landscaped area with a red brick road and green bushes.
A modern building with a central tower, surrounded by a reflective water feature and greenery.
A landscaped courtyard with a central tree, a curved pathway, and modern buildings with glass facades.
A sunset over a calm body of water with a curved concrete edge and a streetlight in the foreground.
A large white building complex with a central lawn and a body of water in the background.
The grassy rise of Capital Hill is Canberra’s crowning feature. The perfectly circular hilltop locale is the core from which the rest of the city radiates.

Its grand boundary road encloses Canberra’s primary piece of architecture: Parliament House. Inside, Australia’s politicians discuss the daily debate. Take a walk around Capital Hill’s tree-lined lawns and experience the different faces of this intricately designed city. To the west, a little patch of remnant bushland provides a peephole into the past.
