Melbourne Attractions!
City as a Whole
You'll barely meet a visitor who hasn't fallen in love with Melbourne. Rattling trams, parklands singing with blackbirds, stately architecture and palm trees - it's like northern Europe on the Mediterranean.
Food and Wine
The influence of decades of immigration from all over the world has made Melbourne a paradise for those who love food and wine. Whole streets are dedicated to food, whether it be Indian, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Chinese, Greek, or a host of other styles. You can't miss the world-class wines either.
Design
Melbourne's love of style is no more evident than in its architecture. From gorgeous Victorian public buildings to designer hotels and dozens of examples of post-Modernist constructions scattered around the city, Melbourne's architecture stands out. Interior design and arts and crafts are also visual highlights of this happening city.
