National Museum of Australia Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Futuristic Museum with VR shows!
If you’re in Canberra, you have to check out the National Museum of Australia. They have a few permanent exhibits that are free to visit, and honestly wowed me with their beautiful presentation. Immerse yourself with lights, sounds and history in the Great Southern Land exhibit that was my personal favourite. They also have VR shows where they transport you to Antarctica or Outerspace at $20 aud per ticket.

One of the most explored cities in the world | Australia Canberra
Explore the city do not miss - Australia National Academy of Fine Arts and Australian National Museum
National Gallery here more than 160,000 Art works, the Chinese aunt who explained to me is a funny and elegant person duck~ I am impressed by the sculpture in Figure 3, the head is on the ground and the phone is still in the hand, explaining "social tools let us Life has disappeared unconsciously." There are five or five works, and the miniature crowd is very realistic. I asked the administrator to put a few McDonald's villains in such a serious work. The administrator said: Some people say that eating McDonald's will kill more people... Hey, Brother dei, are you serious?
The National Museum is another charm. The venue itself is very design, and its great to take pictures outside. The exhibits here are very interesting, such as the Mutombo fossils, the Sydney Opera House section, various models, and two VR experiences per day.
There are joint exhibitions from time to time. When I go, it is a special exhibition of DreamWorks Animation: from sketch to screen. You can see a lot of familiar movies, such as "Kung Fu Panda", from the sketch character to the whole movie to the screen, you can understand the birth of the entire animated film.
When you leave, remember to go to the gift shop. There are various kinds of children's books, as well as local design handmade ornaments. Some of the products are handmade by the aborigines, and they are unique and partially earned. Money is returned directly to these aborigines.
End the exhibition, you can have a cup of coffee in the restaurant of the art gallery and then enjoy the food and beauty and then leave~

The National Museum of Australia
#australiatrip
The National Museum of Australia is one of those must see exhibitions in Canberra. Although some parts are temporarily closed for renovation there is enough to keep you entertained for a couple of hours. School aged children will greatly benefit from the exhibition, in particular, the professional way it has been put together.
How our country has developed over the milennia is amazing, interesting, and a gold mine of information. It's also entertaining.
Morning tea, afternoon tea and lunch are classy and more than good enough to keep the family going for the duration.
From the city it's about a 28 minute walk or a quick cab or bus ride.
Well worth the visit.

Canberra travel guide, only spent 400 dollars for two days and two nights
Eat: More than 70 dollars a day.
Stay: About 180 dollars for two nights (I stayed in a double room at Meriton with a friend).
Travel: Round trip bus is 46 dollars a trip, student bus ticket in Canberra is 4.8 dollars a day, taxi fare in the middle is 20 dollars.
The total cost is just over 400 dollars, and the experience is quite good.
Day 1: Arrived in Canberra at one o'clock in the afternoon, after storing the luggage at the Meriton hotel, went to eat Thai food Kinn, 50 per person, the taste is good, then went to the nearby museum & gallery, followed by the Australian National, also visited the nearby central mall in the evening, dinner was biangbiang noodles, but not very tasty.
Day 2: Slept in, didn't go out until after eleven, went to both the old and new parliament, went to the Royal Mint, went to the National Art Museum, saw the sunset at Ainslie Mountain, saw wild rabbits and kangaroos (but they ran away quickly), ate Indian food Blu ginger, 30-40 per person, the taste was a bit strong for me, but it was okay.
Day 3: Spent half a day in the morning at the National Museum (the only place I went that required a ticket to see the whole museum, we only visited the free area) and Griffin Lake, ate at Terra, went home in the afternoon.
In total, two days and two nights, my friend and I both felt that we ate well, stayed well, and had a good time.
There are really few people in Canberra, there are few living people in the city center during the day, the buildings are not dense, the view is open, the sky is very clean, and the locals are very enthusiastic.
Two or three days is enough, there are not many fun places there and they are not big. Canberra·Australian Capital Territory

Australian National Botanic Gardens Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
The most authentic botanical gardens yet! 🌳🍃
The Australian National Botanic Gardens is a must-go if you love nature and eye popping views. It is also free to enter and easily accessible with public transport. The garden is super big, with many different themes and forests for you to explore in a half-day or full day. It’s better to go in the spring or summer to catch the floral blooms, but even in off-season the trees are super lush and green. It feels authentic and not overly manicures, so you feel like an explorer in vast nature. There is also a cafe serving yummy food in the gardens!
Address: Clunies Ross St, Acton ACT 2601, Australia

Australian National Botanic Gardens 🇦🇺
#timetotravel
The Australian National Botanic Gardens, nestled in the heart of Canberra, are a horticultural wonderland that left me utterly enchanted. My visit to these lush gardens was a journey through the diverse landscapes and unique flora of this vast continent.
Wandering through the gardens, I discovered a breathtaking collection of Australian plants, from the iconic eucalyptus trees to delicate orchids. The themed gardens, like the Rainforest Gully and the Red Centre Garden, offered a glimpse into the country's varied ecosystems.
What sets these gardens apart is their dedication to conservation and education. The informative signage and guided tours provide valuable insights into Australia's rich botanical heritage.
The gardens' serene setting, with stunning views of the surrounding hills and the city beyond, make it a perfect spot for leisurely strolls and picnics. For nature enthusiasts, botany lovers, and anyone seeking a peaceful escape, the Australian National Botanic Gardens are a must-visit. They are a celebration of Australia's unique and diverse plant life. #australia #botanicalgardens

London's National Portrait Gallery
#2024wish
In 2023, I visited the London National Portrait Gallery and immersed myself in a captivating journey through history and art. The diverse array of portraits, from iconic figures to lesser-known personalities, offered a unique glimpse into the tapestry of British culture. The gallery's ambiance, coupled with insightful exhibitions, made it a memorable experience. From Tudor monarchs to contemporary artists, every portrait conveyed a story. In 2024, I want to continue my cultural exploration and visit Canada, anticipating a vibrant blend of history and modernity. #ArtAdventures #LondonGallery #CulturalExploration #TravelDreams 🎨🏛️✈️
