Shopping: For people who like to shop...
  • Tip Rating:

  • For people who like to shop in a shopping Mall (and that's not me) I recommend the Canberra Centre (see picture) in Bunda Street. This glamorous shopping mall has the major department stores (David Jones and Grace Bros), fashion shops, from the upper market to the 'more dash than cash' variety, a food court, bookstores, speciality shops and a number of souvenir-style shops. Its open 7 days a week, and there's ample undercover car parking in the multi-level car park next door. Forget the A$ 4 you pay in Sydney - here it's a paltry 40 cents for your first hour! A must for the ladies while I am going for a walk and a drink ;-)

    Shopping: The centre of Canberra is not...
  • Tip Rating:

  • The centre of Canberra is not so big (compared with Sydney) as you know Canberra counts only 311000 inhabitants. It is also known that Canberra is the fastest growing city of Australia with 7.2% people a year. But one thing is a fact; Canberra has an enjoyable commercial centre (also known as Civic), and at least not so busy as the other main city's. It's a great feeling walking in the centre without passing cars and you find nice shops and café's all around the place. Its even difficult to get lost in the centre because you always coming back to the fabulous merry-go-round (see picture) in the middle of the town. Notice the old city centre around the
    Norhbourne Avenue (where you also find the Melbourne building) that has fine eateries and shops that are quite tempting as you walk around that place.
