Welcome to Canberra
Canberra, the capital city of Australia offers natural beauty, national significance and a high standard of living. Located between Sydney and Melbourne, this planned city is known for its wide open spaces, clean design and strong focus on sustainability. With 100% renewable energy powering the city and a reliable public transport network, Canberra is both liveable and future-focused — making it an ideal destination for business travel, relocation and extended stays.
Set around Lake Burley Griffin, Canberra’s cityscape is framed by bushland, mountain ranges and thoughtfully preserved green space. The lake itself is central to life in the city, offering space for walking, cycling, rowing and weekend picnics. Popular spots like the National Arboretum, Australian National Botanic Gardens and Mount Ainslie Lookout showcase Canberra's natural beauty.
Canberra is also home to many of Australia’s most iconic national institutions. Parliament House, the Australian War Memorial, the National Gallery and the National Museum are just a few of the cultural landmarks found across the city — all easily accessed from central precincts like Braddon and Kingston.

Beyond the city, Canberra’s cool-climate wine region is growing in reputation, with boutique wineries, cellar doors and seasonal food experiences just a short drive away. Visitors can also explore nature reserves like Tidbinbilla or hike through the ranges of Black Mountain and Mount Painter — all within reach of the CBD.
