National Museum of Australia

Canberra, Australia

National Museum of Australia

This museum presents a thematic rather than a chronological account of Australian history, and spent its early years embroiled in a controversy over whether its displays were politically biased. The NMA has recently been revamped and expanded and includes some excellent galleries on Indigenous Austr

alia and many interesting items, but the museum as a whole is somewhat underwhelming and not likely to be of much interest to non-Australians.
