Wow, what an awesome place. So full of the history of politics in this country. I really enjoyed this. You can take a tour or opt to just wander through at your own pace. There is a lot to take in, so allow some time to see it all. Www.Youtube/@IanandLorrainesAussiadventure

The Old Parliament House in Canberra is a remarkable historic gem, wonderfully preserving the essence of Australia's political past. Its rich history is palpable in every room, offering an intimate glimpse into the nation's legislative evolution. The architecture is stunning, blending elegance with the gravity of governance. The museum's exhibits are engaging and informative, perfectly capturing the spirit of Australian democracy. A must-visit for history buffs and tourists alike!

Well this was a lovely surprise, Old Parliament House is full of history but also wonderful exhibitions related to Aust politics and history, but done in a superbly engaging, interesting and interactive way. Make sure you eave plenty of time, we spent over 3 hrs at Old Parliament House and could have spent more. Something for everyone, there were Discovery Trails, Treasure Hunts and other games to play as you weave your way through this beautiful building. We went with our 7yr old and he loved it. The volunteers who were available and ready to chat and share snippets of info and answer questions were fabulous. Thanks for making our visit awesome. And it's free...

If you only have time for one Parliament in Canberra: this is the place to go. The building itself is just gorgeous! The exhibitions are just really great, lots of details, made with love! You should also join a tour: 45 minutes, free! They not only will tell you about the building and the governmental system of the Commonwealth of Australia, they also answer all your questions! Would do it again (which would then be the third time). Highly recommend! If this review was of any help, please leave a like 👇, it keeps me going!

Great atmosphere all wood panelled and all. Some of the work rooms are so small! Can understand what the journos said about it being an intimate space. A courtyard cafe in there too.
