Guidebook for Florey
Sightseeing
Drive up Mount Ainslie to see great views of Canberra. I always recommend visitors do this first because you get to see the major attractions e.g. Parliament House & Australian War Memorial in one straight line from the top of that mountain. Free entry!
Address: Mount Ainslie Drive, Campbell.

Queen Elizabeth Terrace is a great place to start if you want to walk around the beautiful Lake Burley Griffin. There is an international flag display, luscious green pastures complementing the blue waters with a backdrop of the surrounding mountains. There are also segways for hire. Overall just a stunning place to walk/relax in.
