A Brief introduction to Melbourne

The cultural capital of Australia, Melbourne provides lasting memories to those who visit with its intriguing galleries and museums, diverse dining scene, and magnificent architecture.

It is said that Melbourne emulates Europe more than any other city in Australia. You only have to look at the architecture to see why, as some of its most iconic buildings include the Royal Exhibition Building and Flinders Street Station.

Melbourne’s galleries and museums are a must-visit as they house masterpieces from the world’s most famous artists. We recommend going to the National Gallery of Victoria, Australian Centre for Contemporary Art, and the Heide Museum of Modern Art. The Melbourne Museum will appeal to science enthusiasts as it boasts an extensive number of exhibits and is the largest museum in the Southern Hemisphere.

To experience some of the city’s most famous laneways, consider visiting Centre Place and Degraves Street, which are just a few minutes’ walk from each other. While here, be sure to sample the appetising cuisine on offer at the local cafes and award-winning restaurants, while enjoying Melbourne’s signature street art on display.
