Canberra Vacation Travel Guide | Expedia
Purpose built as Australia’s capital city, Canberra is a 3-hour drive from both the snowy mountains and the beautiful beaches of New South Wales. It is a city which honors Australia’s past and shapes its future.
With an expansive bush beauty, a relaxed attitude and colorful events, Canberra is far more than a political capital. Designed for a young nation that was just finding its feet, this city is home to many of the country's most important stories; stories that have come to define what it means to be Australian.
At the heart of Canberra’s creation story is Lake Burley Griffin. A long-standing rivalry between Sydney and Melbourne meant that neither one could be the nation’s capital. Instead, in 1911, the government launched an international design competition seeking a master plan for a brand new city.
The victor, Chicago architect Walter Burley Griffin, won with a garden city design focused on a man-made lake which fits perfectly within the landscape.
When, the nation’s Governor General stood in a dusty paddock in 1913 and announced the name of the new capital, he told the nation that the city had, lying before it, a splendid destiny.
Over 100 years later, that destiny has been fulfilled in a city that preserves the great chapters of Australia’s history and continues to write the future pages of the nation’s story.

Sebastian Vettel taking the win at the 2017 Hungarian Grand Prix
This was the end of the Final Lap of the Formula 1 Pirelli Magyar Nagydíj 2017. The video shows Sebastian Vettel coming to take the win, followed by Kimi Räikkönen and Valtteri Bottas.
Our seats were at the Super Gold Grandstand (Super Gold Tribün) at the Hungaroring, which is one of the only shaded places at this venue. This is located just opposite Ferrari's and Mercedes's pit garages and the winners podium.
This was my first experience seeing the new F1 car specification with wider slick tyres. This was also the first race that saw Carbon supply the winners Champagne.
