on an island in lake burley griffin that you can walk to. try and go when the carillon is being played - quit different to the ringing of bells in a church. the island is also nice for a picnic More

Once again I failed to visit when a performance was actually taking place, but this time I was nearby when the Carillion chimed on the hour – what a beautiful sound! The acoustics of this unusual instrument are magnificent. On a brilliant location literally in Lake Burley Griffin, the National Carillion is a pretty special place. More

We visit here regularly when we walk or bicycle around Lake Burley Griffin. I love the chimes on the hour and the little island the carillon is situated on is fun to explore. More

The Carillion plays beautiful bell music, and is especially lovely when having a picnic nearby. Know a few people who got married at the Carillion, it's a nice spot! More

Great for picnics or just relaxing in the sun... you'll most likely see a wedding or 2 here on weekends :) More

lovely to go for bikeride or walk or picnic with kids - hilarious tunes at lunchtime - 'hey big spender' has got to be the best one! More

A gift from the UK in 1970 & opened by Queen Elizabeth 11, the bells are at 30-40 metres with the clavier chamber just below. More

Nothing special with the Carillon but you can view the beautiful lake and other parts around the lake. More

Really is just a big concrete thingy, But is beautiful to listen to if you can be there at the rights times More
