Melbourne, the second-largest city in Australia, is the capital of the state of Victoria. It is also an important commercial and cultural centre and is also known as the “sporting and cultural capital.” Founded in 1835, Melbourne is settled on a coastal plain at the top of Port Phillip Bay. Melbourne is perhaps regarded the most cultured and politically conservative city of Australia. Melbourne City was planned very perfectly. The founders of Melbourne had visualized it as one of the greatest city of the 19th century. As a result of their farsightedness, Melbourne now features plenty of parks and wide roads and boulevards. Local people are enthusiastic towards sports, fashion and festival.
Melbourne also stands as the cultural capital of Australia and is often venue to many festivals, art exhibitions and musical events. The museums, art galleries, theatres and spaciously landscaped parks and gardens of Melbourne also make it one of the most visited cities of Australia. Much of the architecture in Melbourne has the traces of the Victorian style of architecture. The city also organizes many sporting events which lure a huge crowd.
So, enjoy the excitement of being part of the Australian Grand Prix to the beautiful flowers showcased in the Melbourne International Flower and Garden Show.
