The city, with a population of 403,000 people, is designed around Lake Burley Griffin, a man-made lake popular with cyclists, walkers and joggers. It is surrounded by galleries and museums that house Australia’s art and historical collections interspersed with parks and open spaces and is an easy 2.5-hour drive to both the pristine South Coast of New South Wales and the scenic Snowy Mountains.
