Fans of Modern Architecture Have to See These Three Spots in Canberra, Australia

Canberra doesn’t get as much attention as other major cities in Australia, despite the fact it’s the country’s capital, but architecture lovers will appreciate its beauty. This city is home to many marvels of modern architecture, and these three definitely deserve a spot on your itinerary.

National Gallery of Australia

One of the largest art museums in Australia has an impressive collection of over 166,000 pieces, but that’s not the only reason to give it a visit. Its interior and exterior design are a work of art itself, and the biggest masterpiece you’ll encounter while you’re there.

Parliament House

After opening its doors in 1988, Parliament House quickly went on to become Canberra’s main landmark. In addition to its significance as Australia’s legislative hotspot, this building is pretty impressive from the architectural standpoint thanks to its boomerang-shaped design and lavish main foyer.
