Canberra

Canberra is the capital city of Australia. Its population is a little over 330,000. It attracts tourists for unique land­scapes, natural and historical monuments, animal world, and the culture of the aboriginal peoples.

In 1908 debates rose about the city to become the Austra­lian capital. The choice had to be made between two largest cities: Sydney and Melbourne. However, it wasn't an easy task to make a choice. As a compromise it was decided to build the third city. This city was named Canberra which in the language of Australia's local people means "meeting place". It was officially established on March 12, 1913. Nowadays Canberrans celebrate the birthday of their city on the third Monday in March.

The city consists of seven districts as well as of many smaller suburbs. By the way, the main transport highways go around the city and form so called "circles" which make the traffic easier. For its significant areas of natural vegetation Canberra is sometimes called "the Bush City". The trees and plants were brought to Canberra from different countries of the world: there are Russian birches and bird cherry, Canadian pines and Japanese cherry.
