There are many botanical gardens in Canberra. This is not a ticket area in Canberra. It is not large. It is divided into several areas. There are different landscapes. When you go to the closed park, you will hurry to visit the botanical garden. It is almost the same. There is a tropical rain forest. Not bad, even if you are here.

Canberra's Cotter Dam is a very interesting place, the dam waterfall looks majestic than many natural dams There are two hiking routes to play, one is relatively short, you can go to a Lookout to see the dam underneath, this route is more trees, very easy, There is also a stream, called discovery trail. Another route is five kilometers back and forth, there is a small mountain bag, the scenery along the road is good, if it is a big day, it will be a little sun, you can go to the top of the mountain to see the dam, called HonyongWalking Track. Of course, it is not a problem to go both routes, and it will not be particularly tired. In addition to the dam itself, there are many small tables in the parking place for picnics and barbecue grills. There are also facilities where children can play, and there is also a stream next to it. I saw someone fishing, which is very suitable for family weekend trips.

The highest point in Canberra is open until 10 pm. You can see the panoramic view of Canberra's entire city. Check the sunset time. Arrive before sunset. The wind is very strong on the day. Remind everyone to wear more clothes if you have to go. It is very cold to see the sun falling into the valley. On the other side, the moon rises, too. The big, round moon rises very fast.

Lake Griffin, Canberra, although the lake is large, but it is an artificial lake. This lake is located by many famous local universities and some libraries and art galleries. It is quite romantic. Many people will sit here fishing in the evening.

Canberra's chinatown is not like the archway in Melbourne and Sydney. It's a street with Chinese restaurants. Not very long, many restaurants with various flavors from China's north to the south to the Great Northwest, there are several supermarkets, there are scattered Indian and Thai dishes. There are parking spaces on both sides, but it seems that the parking space is quite tight.

Canberra's National Bell Tower is located next to the famous Ginninderra Lake, a monumental building with four-sided clocks at the top of the stone tablets that represent standard events in Australia. It is a symbol of national time here and very iconic.
