Made by The National Film Board 1952. A look at Canberra through the seasons, focussing on all the city has to offer as well as the natural beauty of the surrounding environs. The opportunities Canberra's infrastructure offers are complimented by the recreational and lifestyle choice also available.

Canberra is referred to in this 1952 government film as, 'Australia’s Garden City’, in contrast to today’s more common title, 'The Bush Capital’. Canberra’s extreme temperatures can fall as low as -10°C in winter and reach over 40°C in summer.
