The Australian War Memorial is most definitely a 'must-see' when visiting Canberra and is well worth spending half a day (or more) at. From the entrance of the War Memorial, you are afforded with magnificent views looking down ANZAC Parade towards both the old and new Parliament House. The collections held in the War Memorial reflect a number of wars and armed conflicts in which Australia has contributed across the globe. These include Boer War, WWI, WWII, Korean War, South African War, Gulf War and many others.
