Popular travelers guide, Lonely Planet, has voted Canberra as the third best city to visit next year. Only behind a city in Spain and Detroit in the US, Lonely Planet defended their choice on 6PR Breakfast.

“We’re always looking for emerging destinations, so this isn’t necessarily a list of where people are going to right now but it’s where people should actually be considering going to because it’s either much improved or it’s done a lot to counter the misconceptions about a particular destination,” Chris Zieher from Loney Planet told Steve and Baz.

Our listeners told us there thoughts of Canberra including Linda who lived there for 10 years and now her partner wants to move back to Canberra when they retire, which she’s not too happy about.
