2 Parliament House in Canberra, Australia

The apex of Parliamentary Triangle in Canberra is the Parliament House. The twin, boomerang-shaped building at the end of Federation Mall was primarily designed by architect Romaldo Giurgola and opened in 1988. Parliament House contains 4,700 rooms including the Senate and House of Representatives Chambers plus the Great Hall for hosting major events. It also offices the Prime Minister and Cabinet of Australia. You can tour the public areas of Parliament House and sit in on committee meetings. A popular activity is visiting the roof beneath the 266 foot flagpole. The vantage point offers panoramic views of Capital Hill and the city across from Lake Burley Griffin.
