🇦🇺Australian war memorial🇦🇺 🪙Royal Australian mint.🪙 🍷🍸Eat & Drinks🍷🍸 🌥🌸Cockington Green Gardens🌸🌥 one day trip from Sydney to Canberra #canberra ##funs #joy Great food great brews. Go to place in Canberra for a special beer. I particularly enjoyed the Descent22 Imperial Stout. Rich vanilla flavour aged in foeder barrels with a hint of hops. At 10% it’s not a session ale but great for a winter’s night in Canberra. Very generous serve for a strong beer too! Combined with the tasty food menu it made for a great night out (spicy chicken wings). The atmosphere upstairs makes the place even better.

In the quiet streets of Canberra, the capital of Australia, there is a cultural landmark that cannot be missed - the Royal Australian Mint. It is not only the birthplace of Australian coins, but also the crystallization of history, technology and art. For travelers, this is not only a museum, but also a journey to witness the evolution of national currency and the development of modern technology. When you step into the mint, the first thing that catches your eye is the tall modern architectural design and the bright and spacious hall, which is like a futuristic workshop. There are free guided tours in the museum, which detail the historical changes of Australian currency, the evolution of casting technology, and the display of rare coins. From the "beaded coins" used in the colonial period to modern colored commemorative coins, each coin tells a story belonging to Australia. Among them, the most attractive to tourists is the "coin production area" behind the transparent glass. Through the glass window, you can clearly observe how the automated robot arm presses metal sheets into shiny Australian dollars. If you are lucky, you can also see workers operating a robot named "Titan" to perform casting operations. The precision and regularity make people admire the exquisiteness of modern technology. In addition, the mint has a "make your own coin" experience area, where visitors can pay to press a commemorative coin of their own, which will become the most memorable souvenir of this trip. There is also a gift shop in the museum, selling limited commemorative coins, stamps and collection albums, which is undoubtedly a great boon for collectors. Overall, the Canberra Mint is not only an educational and interesting attraction, but also allows people to deeply understand the history, technology and culture behind the currency in its unique way. Whether it is a family tour, a student visit, or a history enthusiast, you can find surprises and inspiration here.

Australian coins are made by the Royal Australian Mint. Visit the mint to learn more about the world of coins. The mint is not very big and has two floors. The first floor has a shop and a café. Here, you can learn about the history of coins and see some special coins (such as Olympic coins and coins made for special festivals) and Chinese zodiac coins. The second floor is an exhibition hall where you can overlook the coin production area. Next to the glass window is a multimedia machine that shows the production process, from design, mold making, die casting, and inspection to packaging. The best way to learn about coin making is to take a guided tour. The guide will tell you the complete history of Australian coin making and take you to the factory to see the coin making process.

The seasons in the Southern Hemisphere are opposite to ours. From time to time, a dazzling golden color jumps into view from the car window. The closer to Canberra, the more dense it is, clusters of clusters, full of roadside, desolate highways suddenly become bright. The tour guide said that it was Acacia, and when the spring breeze blew, it would bloom in large areas. When people saw Acacia open, they knew that spring was coming. Looking at the dense, bright and brilliant golden yellow flowers, it really has the breath of spring, bright and full of vitality. The first stop: Cockington Green Gardens. This is the private garden of the British Carlton family. The Carlton family who lived in Australia decided to build their own manor because of their nostalgia for their hometown of England. They made British cultural buildings and other countries' representative buildings in a 12:1 ratio. This is a wonderful microcosm. The second stop is the Royal Australian Mint. Before officially entering the hall, the first thing that comes into view in the green transparent corridor is the big Australian coat of arms. On the left side of the national emblem is a kangaroo, and on the right is an emu. Both of these are unique animals in Australia, which are the symbols of the country and the symbols of the nation. Moreover, kangaroos and emus are animals that will not retreat. Australia hopes to show its courage to move forward, never retreat, and brave and good fighting spirit. In the middle of them is a shield, and the six sets of patterns on the shield surface symbolize the six states of the country.
