District of Belconnen, Administrative district in Australian Capital Territory, Australia
The District of Belconnen extends across multiple suburbs north of Canberra, containing residential areas, commercial centers, and educational institutions around Lake Ginninderra.
The territory underwent transformation from agricultural lands known as Ginninderra to an administrative district in 1966 when New South Wales transferred the land to Commonwealth Government.
The district maintains numerous parks, sports facilities, and the Belconnen Arts Centre, which presents exhibitions and performances throughout the year.
Westfield Belconnen serves as the main commercial hub, housing retail stores, government offices, and three bus stations that connect the district to other parts of Canberra.
The district sits at the intersection of two geological faults forming an X shape, resulting in a concentration of different rock types and volcanic formations.
