"Built in 1988, Australia's national parliament building is a graceful and deeply symbolic piece of architecture. Sitting atop Capital Hill, the building is crossed by two axis, north–south and east–west, representing the historical progression and legislative progression of Australian democracy. There's plenty to see inside, whether the politicians are haranguing each other in the chambers or not."

"Royal Botanic Gardens –you can’t beat the serenity and harbour views from these gardens. Have a picnic or take a walk and admire the many different types of plants and city views on a free self-guided walking tour."

"Kid’s meals are only $15 each at the First Edition Restaurant And Bar, with plenty of classic options to leave everyone feeling full and satisfied. The menu includes cheeseburgers, chicken nuggets, grilled fish, ham and pineapple pizza, spaghetti bolognese, and toasted sandwiches. Not to mention, the meal also comes with either vegetables or salad, a drink, and two scoops of ice cream to finish."

"I was impressed with the Green House’s ricotta and date pancakes with banana, salted butterscotch sauce, whipped vanilla mascarpone and candied walnuts. The pancakes were fabulously fluffy and soft, lightly drizzled in an amazing sticky butterscotch sauce with a good portion of banana, blueberries and strawberries. The portion was smaller than I would have liked but that just means less calories!"

"Whether you’re in the mood for the perfect espresso, pour over or cold brew, Harvest will sort you out with a solid refuel.
