| What can I say about this city? I used to say it is boring, awful and chaotically designed. And in most ways I still think this is true. However there are quite some things to see and do. But be prepared to get lost more than once, and make sure you have a car, because the city is too spread out to walk from one attraction to the next. If you do want to walk prepare to end up roasted and ready to be eaten alive by flies. And that is no joke!! |

| Pros: | "Good museums" | | Cons: | "The flies, the heat, the roundabouts" | | In A Nutshell: | "If you're looking for big city life don't bother coming to Canberra!!" |

b1bob Sun Oct 15, 2006 21:30 UTC Nice job! They were saying the same things about Washington, DC when it was as new as Canberra. | kit_mc Sun Jul 30, 2006 00:02 UTC Hell to navigate and dull as ditchwater... And that's what the locals say about it! Yup, Canberra is a difficult place to love! |
