  第二、三天 参观堪培拉的景点堪培拉(Canberra)是澳大利亚首都,是联邦政府、国会及外国使馆的所在地,也是澳洲的政治中心。和澳大利亚其他州相比,堪培拉算是非常小的,南北长只有80公里,宽只有30公里。堪培拉的四周是美丽的山岭,城市为松林翠柏所环抱,郊区与自然乡村毗连,景色秀丽优雅,环境清新宁静。由于人口密度小又无工业区,堪培拉享有“天然首都”之美誉。其主要景点有:旧国会大楼(Old Parliament House)建于1927年,是联邦议会会议大楼。曾有两次大的扩建。自新国会大厦于1988年落成后,它即完成了长达61年的使命,成为一座历史博物馆。国会大厦(The Parliament House)于1988年正式启用,是澳洲最受赞美的建筑。这里免费参观,除圣诞节全年有350多天开放。国会大厦坐落在首都山(Capital Hill)上,气势雄伟宏大。格里芬湖(Lake Burley Griffin)和库克船长喷泉(Captain Cook’s Memorial Fountain)格里芬湖于1963年由人工建成,周长35公里,面积为704公顷。格里芬湖把市区分成两大部分,北侧为都市山,南侧为首都山。湖心有为纪念库克船长上岸200周年而建的“纪念库克船长喷泉”,喷水时水柱高达137米。湖中的阿斯彭岛上建有一个钟塔。它是英国为纪念堪培拉50周年而赠送的。其中大钟重达6吨,小的只有7公斤,共有53个。游澳大利亚著名景点,做阅读理解模拟真题Lake Burley Griffin, built in the 1920s, is an attraction you can’t miss for two reasons—one is that it is a great place for picnics and relaxing with plenty of water activities to try as well as visiting the parks and gardens that surround it.
