Top Museums in Australia

Download the Australian War Memorial app before your visit. It has a great audio guide that you can use for free, plus additional info on the exhibits.

Don't miss the daily Last Post Ceremony at 4:55 PM. It's a moving tribute and really adds depth to your visit; just make sure to grab a seat early!

Hit up the cafe for lunch—they have some great affordable options. I was surprised how reasonable the prices were for a gallery cafe!

I found that some of the artwork can be a bit intense or abstract, so don't feel bad if you don't 'get' it. Just go with the flow and enjoy the creativity!

If you're a fan of interactive exhibits, don't miss the experimentation zone. I spent way more time there than I planned, but it was so fun!

There’s often some cool outdoor installations too. I think walking around the area after your visit is a great way to extend your experience.

if you’re into photography, bring your good camera. i took some great shots and they allow photography without flash, which is a bouns!

You might want to skip the weekends; it gets super crowded. I visited on a Thursday morning and had way more space and time to enjoy the exhibits.
