Melbourne is best known as Australia’s cultural, dining and shopping capital in the southern state of Victoria. Melbourne’s probably more akin to a very big town than a very big city. The atmosphere is a little less rushed, but no less cosmopolitan than its other state capital counterparts.
Born out of the Victorian gold rush in 1851, today it’s known as the garden city boasting an abundance of lovely parks and pretty, green areas. Cultural city is far more appropriate however as Melbourne burst at the seams with pursuits of the arts in all its forms, from musicals to opera and fine art, theatre and bohemian performances. Named by UNESCO as a City of Literature and topping many international lists, it’s been repeatedly acknowledged as one of the world’s most liveable cities.
