Telstra Tower

Telstra Tower is like Canberra's compass. The hilltop landmark is visible throughout the bustling city, casting a watchful eye over locals and visitors alike. A pinnacle of modern technology, Telstra Tower rises from the center of Canberra Nature Park and offers panoramic views of the city and surrounding countryside. It opened in 1980, and while the tower's name has since changed from Telecom Tower, it continues to provide communication facilities for the nation's capital. Telstra Tower has both indoor and outdoor viewing galleries, a telecommunications museum, cafe, revolving restaurant, and gift shop.
