Often referred to as the cultural capital of Australia, Melbourne is known for its fascinating museums, world class galleries, and diverse culinary options.

Melbourne boasts some of Australia’s most renowned museums and galleries. To see artistic masterpieces from around the world, consider visiting the National Gallery of Victoria, Australian Centre for Contemporary Art, and the Heide Museum of Modern Art. The Melbourne Museum is the largest museum in the southern hemisphere, and features several science exhibits ranging from dinosaur fossils to a giant whale skeleton.
