Some Info on Melbourne!
Melbourne
is perhaps the most 'European' of Australia's cities:
it has a certain style and charm that you won't find
anywhere else. Locals will tell you that it is the most
stylish of Australia's cities, famous for its restaurants,
fashion and über cool nightclub scene. Perhaps because
it doesn't have Sydney's beaches, Melbourne has more
than made up for it with it's alternative entertainment.
Check out the pubs in Fitzroy and St Kilda for great
local music: Melbourne has produced some of the most
influential Australian bands over the last decade. While
Sydney's band scene stagnated in the late '90's with
the infiltration of the dreaded poker machines into
most pubs, alternative music continued to thrive in
Melbourne...grab a gig guide when you arrive and you
will be amazed at the quality and diversity of the live
music scene down here.
If you are in Melbourne over the winter, then you really
should head to the 'footy' at least once: this is the
essential Melbourne experience. Get on down to the MCG
(or 'The G' as the locals call it) and watch the big
men fly in a game of Aussie Rules. It doesn't matter
if you don't understand the rules, just have a beer
and scream out "BALL!" every once in a while
and you will soon find yourself in the swing of things...With
crowds routinely topping the 60,000 mark, it is an exhilarating
afternoons entertainment.
There
are a couple of beaches in Melbourne, but the real seaside
delights are just out of the city.
Bells Beach, the location of one of the great Pro Surfing
tour events is just a short drive from the city and
-winter or summer- is a great spot to visit, particularly
if the surf is pumping!
Also within driving distance are a number of other
specatcular spots to visit: The Great Ocean Road - one
of the truly outstanding drives in the world, Phillip
Island, the wineyards of the Yarra Valley if you are
partial to a drop and Melbourne is, of course, the Gateway
to Tasmania...
This is just a small sample of the many and varied
types of activities and entertainment you will find
in Melbourne. Whatever your plans are, allow an extra
4 or 5 days to explore Melbourne once you get here,
because once you have arrived you will not be in any
hurry to leave.
