    There are many differences between London and Canberra although both of

    them are capital cities. London is the capital of Britain whereas Canberra is thecapital of Australia.

    Canberra is located in the south east of theState of New South Wales on the Molonglo River,round an artificial lake. London is located in the

    south east of England, on both sides of the ThamesRiver. Canberra is smaller than London; it is also
