The National Museum of Australia
There's a place where we can all explore Australia's great stories. Judged Australia's best major tourist attraction in 2005 and 2006, the National Museum of Australia in Canberra celebrates the land, nation and people of Australia by exploring the key issues, events and people that have shaped our nation. The Museum has five permanent exhibitions that bring together Australia's stories, each presented with state-of-the-art technology and hands-on interactive exhibitions. From the First Australians gallery, which features the histories and cultures of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, through to Nation, an exhibition of all things uniquely Australian, the Museum has something for everyone.
The National Museum's open everyday except Christmas Day from 9am to 5pm. General admission is free!
