The first time someone visits the city of Melbourne, ends up Asking 'Why Did I book more days here?!'
Indeed, as the Australian capital of fashion, shopping, gastronomy, culture and sports Melbourne offers so many experiences and attractions that just a couple of days won’t be enough to fully live it. For almost a decade ‘The Economist’ newspaper has ranked Melbourne as one of the most livable cities in the world.
Its spectacular parks, shopping districts, modern buildings and the largest amount of Victorian buildings in the world comprise Melbourne an unforgettable experience and the best-kept secret of Australia.
With an average temperature of 12°C in winter and 30°C during summer, Melbourne has lately awaken to international tourism as a favorite destination and of course the trendiest city in Australia.
A cosmopolitan city, Melbourne features 180 spoken languages, 50 nationalities of restaurants and at least 30 cultural and sports events every day, however, along the European-style alleys one can feel at ease whereas in the nearby parks one can observe many colored birds.
If all this wasn’t enough, on the outskirts of Melbourne one can enjoy the Great Ocean Road and the Twelve Apostles, or Philip Island and the amusing Penguin Parade, or Yarra Valley and its spectacular vineyards, and also the town of Ballarat and its 19th Century Gold Rush attractions.
On this blog I’ll try to transmit my experiences visiting this extraordinary city, describing one aspect at a time, from the shopping districts to the arts and cultural centres, theatres, sports complex, restaurants, bars and cafes, historic buildings, family entertainment, night life, etc. always trying to make it as enjoyable as the visit itself to Melbourne and regional Victoria.
