About Melbourne
Melbourne is a lively, sophisticated city packed with shops, restaurants, bars and cafes in wide, leafy boulevards and tiny, atmospheric laneways that beckon to be explored.
Amongst other things, Melbourne’s truly temperate climate has over the years attracted new residents from over 110 countries. It’s now a city that speaks (and eats) in 100 languages. Although, to really understand our cultural and ethnic mix, you’d have to dine in one of our 3500 restaurants every night for several years and still not eat in the same place twice!
It’s a sophisticated mix of style, warmth and Australian informality and you won’t find it in any other place. This city practically breathes the good life. Believe it. When you see it – you’ll think the world of Melbourne.
About Victoria
Just one’s hour drive from Melbourne will take you to a world away in regional Victoria. Discover the diversity and beauty – from world-class wineries to natural springs, the coastal villages of the peninsulas to alpine towns. Drive along one of the many scenic routes, pull on your walking boots and follow tracks and trails, or wander the shops and local produce markets.
