Hey all those people south of the border (the nsw border that is). Im staying in collins street, melb for the next 3 days. Whats good to go see and wheres good to go and drink / eat. Is there much going on of a tues or wed night?
I would say get out as quickly as possible, as you know what they say about melbourne "It's Great, I mean organised crime has to be based somwhere in Australia"
Go to...... Chapel Street for some night life, cafe, bars, etc Lygon Street for Italian food Lt Bourke for Chinese food Kings Street for strip bars, etc Spring Street for Parliament House (oldest one in Aust - worth a look) Spring Street for Hard Rock Cafe (if that's your thing) Various gardens in the city (it is the Garden State) Southbank along the Yarra River for trendy cafes, etc (pricey too) MCG for tour of the ground, etc Crown Casino to gamble and lose money Historic tram ride (is free) will take you around the city and point things out, which you can go back to later if you like it. You may want to do this first. It's an ancient looking red-rattler of a tram with City Loop written at the front (I think) This is a start and most are walking distance for you, or a short taxi/tram ride. Enjoy!! CheerZ Vincent
The Docklands precinct... The little alley ways in Melbourne are also interesting... There's also a bus that takes you around the major sites of Melbourne for free too...I think it's called the "Tourist Bus"... Enjoy your stay.
Thanks Went out last night for a bit of a walk around from faderation square over the river to southbank and down to the casino...i think it was anyway haha..
