Lonely Planet Pocket Canberra
The pocket guide that proves Canberra is anything but boring.
Canberra spends its whole life fighting the "but what is there to do?" question — and this little book wins the argument on its behalf. Lonely Planet's Pocket Canberra distils the capital into an expertly curated, genuinely pocket-sized guide: the world-class National Gallery and War Memorial, the cool-climate wineries on the city's edge, the spring spectacle of Floriade, and the small-bar and specialty-coffee scene that locals are quietly smug about. It is the perfect gift for someone visiting for the first time, a new resident finding their feet, or a Sydneysider who needs a reason to make the three-hour drive. Lightweight enough for a day pack, detailed enough to plan a long weekend — and a gentle way of saying, "trust me, there's more here than you think."
