上次只是去了Melbourne三天,真是不足夠的。在Brisbane,Sydney及Melbourne,這,澳洲的三大城市中,我是最喜歡Melbourne的。Brisbane的市中心太小的,也因為是遲發展的,沒有什麼很歷經背景的建築。Sydney是澳洲最熱鬧,最現代化,最方便的大城市,不過,始終,太多人了。
Melbourne就是不同的,比較少人口的,而且市中心是我曾遊歷的澳洲城市中,最美的。就好像這輛美麗的電車。
Brisbane就是欠了一個好像Melbourne的電車網絡,沒有廢氣,而且電車是不像汽車般快,給人們一種閒暇的感覺。
Royal Exhibition Building is a late 19 century building. It built on 1880 for International Exhibition. Too bad, on the time I visited there, there was some constructions inside. So, I can’t go inside into the building. By the way, that is listed as World Heritage.

St. Patrick’s Cathedral是歌德式的大教堂。十分有氣勢.它是建於1939年,不過,開始建築是早在1851,因各種原因,工程拖延甚久。Wikipedia有更深入的解釋,http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_Patrick’s_Cathedral,_Melbourne
Melbourne is not small. There is across a few streets. That doesn’t like the one in Brisabne is smalll and old.
London Broken Bridge is another major attraction at Tweleve Apostles National Park. It used to call London Bridge. Because it looks like a bridge and walk over on it before. But some time, the rock is decaying. The bridge is broken, the people can’t walk near as well.
This artwork is just placed near Parliament of Victoria on Dec 2008 (around a month before the time I took this photo. This is for celebration of the 100th year anniversary of women’s right to vote in Victoria.
This is inspired by the giant petition on 1891, with 30,000 signatures for the equal right of votes. So, it looks like a long roll of paper.
Parliament of Victoria, How’s beatiful, is it beautiful? I went to NSW and QLD, there are not that beatiful of parliament house. The tour guide said in late 1800, near Melbourne, the people found a gold mine. So, a lot of people went to there for gold minning. Moreover, because there is a lot of gold. So, the Melbourne city is rich. That is the reason, there are a lot of beatiful buildings.
Melbourne Zoo, that is one of places I recommended for your Meblourne Trip. Firstly, that is easy to access, you can reach by Train or Trams. I took Train from City to there, that is around 15 mins. Moreover, there are a number of rare and cure animals. Such as, Elephant and Griaffes. If you have kids, I will highly recommend you to visit there. The kids must love that.
