We stayed at the Capital Tower Hotel near Lake Griffin. We could walk to Lake Griffin or take the Federal Avenue across Lake Griffin. Lake Burley Griffin is the center of downtown Canberra, with several bridges connecting the two sides. It is said that there is a fountain built to commemorate Captain Cook in the lake. The water column from the bottom of the lake is 137 meters high. Standing anywhere in the city, you can see the huge white water column piercing the blue sky. It is very spectacular. Unfortunately, the time spent in Canberra is too short to appreciate the spectacular scenery of the fountain. The weather is not good. It is always cloudy during the Australian National Day. Several times, not especially to this fountain, perhaps that day is National Day without water.

    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.

    The beautiful and quiet Lake Griffin, Australian National University is built along the lake. The Federal Park on the shore of the lake has Captain Cook Memorial Squirt Pool(Captain Cook Memorial Water Jet). The water column spewed from the bottom of the lake is 140 meters high. Standing anywhere in the city, you can see its tall white water column directly into the sky.

    Canberra's Lake Burley Griffin is a artificially excavated lake, but the surrounding plants have grown very dense so far, it feels like a natural lake, the scenery is very beautiful, there are many Australian national landmarks around the lake, Arguably it is as much of Canberra's soul as the famous Lake Kindra and worth a visit.

    Lake Griffin is now near the museum and is building roads, but everything in Australia is in order and there seems to be no impact. Walk along the lake museum, library, art gallery, old Parliament House, new Parliament House all-round, of course I have good footwork! It is too cold when there is wind by the lake in winter, and it is not suitable for someone to recommend coffee by the lake. I think it is almost the same as jumping feet by the lake. But, but one by one, you can still see foreign men and women wearing shorts and sandals, and take them. Walking around the lake, I saw a couple of black swans, generous and elegant! A bird flew, and walked to my son to accompany us to watch the sunset!

    Burley Griffin Lake is an artificial lake that flows between the city centre and the Parliamentary Triangle in the heart of Canberra, the ACT Territory. The lake is located close to the geographical centre of Canberra, and many important institutions such as the Australian National University, the Australian National Gallery, the National Museum of Australia, the National Library of Australia and the High Court of Australia are located on the shore of its lake. The Capitol is also not far from the lake. Its surrounding area is also popular with recreational users, especially during warmer months. Although fewer people swim in the lake, it is often used for various other activities such as boating, fishing and sailing.

    Lovely open green space in the heart of Canberra. A great place to stroll around and near the parliament.
