Quizzic Alley - Canberra
Gift shop
👍👍 Very good shop, with lots of great theming and decoration as well as lots of stock. Prices were a bit steep but I guess that's what you get for importing speciality supplies. Would definitely recommend for Harry Potter fans although I would mention there is another one in Sydney in case you can't co...

Lennox Gardens
Garden
👍 Great views, some interesting sculptures and plantings but few botanical labels or natives. Amusing from a foreign relations perspective they put China and Japan together. Monkeybar height inaccessible for smaller kids. Picnic in progress, seems a good spot. Toilets poorly maintained, signposted and...

International Flag Display
Scenic spot
👍👍 I like the concept of it. Another location worth visiting when you are in Canberra. It is fun to test yourself to see how many flags you know and I see families with young kids doing that too. Nice to visit on a sunny day
