City Walk, Canberra
City Walk is a paved outdoor pedestrian area in Civic, Canberra. It goes from Northbourne Avenue near the ACTION bus interchange in the east, to Binara street near the Casino in the south-west. Pedestrians can walk almost the whole way without having to cross any roads with cars on them, except for Akuna Street.
City Walk passes the Sydney Building and Mort Street at the bus interchange, runs next to Garema Place, crosses Petrie Plaza where there is a merry-go-round, runs alongside the Canberra Centre where there is a well known pyramid shaped fountain.
City Walk often has street performers, and sometimes events such as the Canberra Multicultural Festival take place there. Cameras were set up in City Walk to deter crime.
It has many outdoor cafes, and other shops.
