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.

I went there for the Last Post Ceremony (it's free but you still have to book tickets online) and it was quite interesting. The ticket to the ceremony doesn't grant you access to the other parts of the museum but if you have enough time and are interested in Australia's war and conflict history it looked well displayed.The War Memorial is also a great starting point for a hike up to the Mount Ainslie Lookout with a beautiful view over Canberra - especially great during sunset.

The National Museum of Australia, which stands near the gallery and some museums, feels like you can visit several nearby attractions and make a day trip. Personally, the museum is very design-oriented and not so boring, because its design is very abstract and forward

Australian Library, one of the most beautiful libraries in the world that I used to be cheap, this library is not long after construction, but the books inside are still very complete, and there are cafes, lounges and other local equipment, which is still very complete.

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 National Portrait Gallery in Canberra is a very large museum of painting art, with many different styles of art, including sculpture, painting or photography. There are often some large-scale special exhibitions, which are very wonderful and definitely worth visiting by friends who like art and art.

Corkington Green Garden is a famous micro-landscape park in Canberra. Here, famous buildings around the world are built in different proportions according to the same style. It is a veritable miniature landscape park. There are many scenes on display, such as the Premier League, where there are several football players. It looks like you are actually watching a great Premier League football game and it is worth a visit.

Take a ferry at sunset. You can see the Harbor Bridge and the Opera House at sunset on the ferry. When you come back, you can enjoy the beautiful night view.

The Sydney Opera House is very worth going. It not only looks magnificent, rich in characteristics, but also has a world inside. Not only has the introduction of construction history, but also can see its unique architectural layout and structure, and can not take pictures inside the theater. The tour guide is also very responsible.

It's pretty in Taronga Zoo! You can spend your whole day there if it's a pleasant weather. When I went there it was hot, so I managed to go around within 3 to 4 hours. Zoo is approachable by ferry from Circular Quay. I booked from trip.com where you can straightaway show your booking at the entrance, doesn't need to go other place for ticket collection.
