🇦🇺 Where to visit in Canberra | National Botanic Garden 🌳
📍National Botanic Garden It's located within ANU. Just a 5-minute walk from YKB! 🚧 ✅ You can first go to the visitor center to get a map 🗺️. There are many souvenirs available for purchase, such as essential oils, plant atlases, and animal plush toys 🧸... There are also free sightseeing shuttles 🚌 at regular intervals, along with guided tours—different routes are offered at different time slots. ✅ This is a must-visit spot for graduation photos 🎓! It's super photogenic! I'm surprised no one recommended it before! You don't need to go far to get close to nature. It's a large botanic garden with many different sections. It should be even more beautiful in spring and summer! Unfortunately, only some flowers 💐 and green plants are in bloom during winter. ✅ My favorite part is the Rainforest section ❤️. It sprays mist at fixed times—you can ask the visitor center for details. It has a real tropical forest vibe 🌳, so fairy-tale-like and photogenic! It's recommended to bring a camera 📷 because phone photos can't capture the misty atmosphere, which is a pity. The whole place is filled with the breath of nature—take a deep breath and relax 🧘♀️. Remember to wear an extra coat if you come in winter. ✅ There are many kangaroos 🦘 in the evening. No need to go to UC to see kangaroos anymore—ANU has them too! ✅ There's also a café ☕️ called Pollen inside. Opening hours: 9am-3:30pm The view is really beautiful—it's a hidden gem café 🌟! Beautiful ladies, come take photos 📷 here! It feels like drinking coffee in a greenhouse. Highly recommend spending an afternoon here. The Blossom Latte (in photo 8) is delicious (perfect for someone like me who doesn't like bitter coffee ☕️), and the cheesecake 🧀 is amazing—creamy and not greasy at all, which is rare. ✅ According to the signs, there's also a spa, but I didn't try it! Not sure about the prices. If any of you have tried it, feel free to share! #Canberra #ANU #Holiday #AustralianInternationalStudents #WhereToGoOnHoliday #CanberraLife #NationalBotanicGarden #Kangaroo #GraduationPhotos
