Melbourne<br />

Melbourne is an eclectic mix of old and new, where leafy boulevards and old-fashioned trams exist<br />

side-by-side with rock festivals, trendy bars and restaurants, and the hippest boutiques. Melbourne is<br />

Australia’s culture capital and is renowned for Victorian-era architecture and leafy streets that reflect<br />

the city’s history. Developments such as Federation Square emphasise the city’s enigmatic style with<br />

its cutting-edge arts scene. With more than 100 art galleries, excellent shopping and an incredible<br />

mix of ethnic dining experiences, Melbourne is a quintessentially Australian city that you will fall<br />

in love with.<br />

Essential Melbourne<br />

• St Kilda is Melbourne’s most fashionable bayside suburb and features the fully restored St Kilda Baths<br />

• Take a ride on Australia’s oldest steam train, the Puffing Billy through the Dandenongs and Yarra Valley<br />

• Chaotic, friendly, multicultural Queen Victoria Market has been open for more than 125 years and<br />

should not be missed<br />

• Visit Melbourne Cricket Ground, where sports-mad Melbournians worship their football and cricket heroes<br />
