Black Mountain Tower

The next day, we went to the top of the Black Mountain and climbed (actually went up the lift in) the tower at the top of the mountain:



From the viewing platform, parliament was visible in the distance:

We had been advised by a few people not to bother visiting Canberra. That's pretty unfair. It may not be as massive and as exciting as Sydney or Melbourne but it is a beautiful place, set in a stunning location. One thing that we noticed is that public transport is not nearly as good as in Melbourne or Sydney and a car would have been very useful. As it was, we relied on lifts :-)
