  • Melbourne Travel Guide & City Information

    • Melbourne is Victorias capital but has lost its position of being the nations financial capital. This second-largest city claims to be the cultural capital of Australia and does indeed have to offer a lot of cultural impulses. Besides all the different cultures that reside in Melbourne as a result of immigration moves after World War II, there are plenty of cultural festivals, performances, galleries and museums.The city centre is packed with bars, cafés and shops, alternated with nice green parks to flee Melbournes hustle and bustle. The tourist office offers some excellent day-trips that do not only offer you the chance to see the most interesting old buildings and museums but also a bit more of the surroundings.

    When youve had it with the big city, make a day-trip to Philip Island (to see the penguins), the nearby Wilsons Promontory National Park, the goldfields or drive down the Great Ocean Road and let your breath be taken away by some astonishing views of the sea and its coastal rock formations.
