Capital Hill (en rose) à Canberra.

Capital Hill est un quartier de l'arrondissement de Canberra Sud, la capitale fédérale de l'Australie et le siège du parlement australien à l'extrémité sud du triangle parlementaire. Au départ, dans les plans de l'architecte Walter Burley Griffin, l'emplacement devait accueillir un Capitole[1]. Le nom du bâtiment se retrouve aujourd'hui dans le nom du théâtre (théâtre du Capitole) situé dans le quartier de Manuka à Canberra.
