Luxury Holidays in Canberra
Art at the National Gallery, walks by Lake Burley Griffin and cellar doors just beyond the capital.
Discover Canberra
Canberra makes a case for taking your time. Broad avenues lead into leafy parks; the lake appears between the trees; and the buildings along its shores hold many of Australia’s stories. The capital’s unhurried pace leaves room for a morning in a gallery, an afternoon outdoors and a dinner spent talking about what you saw.
Art and the nation’s story
At the National Gallery of Australia, encounter work by Australian artists alongside Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander art. A visit to Parliament House offers another way to understand the country. Give yourself time in both places: an exhibition may hold your attention long after you intended to leave.
Beyond the gallery walls
Lake Burley Griffin brings the city together. Walk or cycle beside the water, then see Canberra from a different angle on a boat trip. Beyond the capital, the Canberra Wine District offers open landscapes and a chance to discover local wines. It makes a gentle change of scene after a day among museums and monuments.
Spring and autumn are lovely seasons for exploring on foot. Summers are warm, while winters bring crisp air. Yana Luxury Travel can arrange a stay and a programme that gives Canberra’s art, architecture and surrounding countryside the space they deserve.
