Melbourne Things To Do Tours & Attractions
Melbourne has been called the fashion and sporting capital of Australia,
but it has far more things to do than just beer, football and clothing. Melbourne has
some spectacular attractions, historic buildings and fantastic things
to do in and around the city.
The
Melbourne of today is a far cry from yesteryear. Vibrant, yet with a
quiet sophistication, Melbourne is Australia's second most populated
city and also the nations second most popular tourist destination, rivaled
only by Sydney.
There always seems to be something going on in Melbourne. Football
finals, Art exhibitions, Spring Racing Carnival and a host of festivals
such as Melbourne
Moomba Waterfest.
Just out of Melbourne lie some of the best natural attractions in Australia.
The Great Ocean Road is regarded as one of the best coastal drives in
the world and the attractions include world standard surfing beaches
and limestone formations such as the Twelve Apostles and London Bridge.
Another popular natural attraction is watching the Little
Penguins come ashore each night at Phillip Island. There is no greater
thrill for nature lovers than to see the fairy penguins returning to
their nests at sundown, after being away fishing all day.
But
you don't have to go far to enjoy Melbourne. History is well preserved
in Melbourne with glorious architecture like the Flinders St Railway
Station, which takes centre stage on the banks of the Yarra River.
