Which suburb of Canberra contains the Australian Parliament House?

The Canberra suburb containing the Australian Parliament House is Capital Hill.

Parliament House occupies the summit of Capital Hill at the southern apex of Canberra’s Parliamentary Triangle. The building is partly set into the hill, with the Australian flag flying above a large steel flagpole structure that forms a defining feature of the skyline. Capital Hill is enclosed by State Circle and is connected to the rest of the city by Canberra’s planned avenues.

Walter Burley Griffin’s 1912 plan originally called the site Kurrajong Hill and envisioned a major civic or ceremonial building there. The permanent Parliament House site was debated for decades: alternatives included Camp Hill and the lakeshore. In 1974, Parliament voted to place the new building on Capital Hill, and it opened in 1988.

Yarralumla, Barton and Acton are nearby Canberra suburbs, which makes them plausible distractors. Yarralumla contains the diplomatic district and Government House, while Barton contains important offices and institutions. The building itself, however, is in Capital Hill.
