Melbourne is set around the shores of Port Phillip Bay. The city itself, sits on the northern banks of the Yarra River, about five kilometres from the bay.
Extending around the bay are a number of inner suburbs, each with its own distinct character and personality. A short tram ride from the city centre, Melbourne’s suburban neighbourhoods are a must see for anyone wanting to experience what life here is really all about.

Ummm.....slightly incorrect on a few things....Only metropolitan Melbourne gets a public holiday (Geelong gets the Geelong cup off). And the max crowd ever on Cup day is about 120,000
Great tips on Melbourne, I must go back and spend more time there.
RAfi and Christine - next time come further down the highway to Geelong. We will show you some sights and sounds. We just had the Geelong Cup this week. Melbourne Cup is grand but have never seen the race, only the car park.
Again, beautiful pictures!
Yes Melbourne Cup Day is rapidly approaching once again & the hysteria is building up, particularly down south. Must get down there & see what the fuss is about one day.
Beauriful! I visited Casino twice or three times (no luck) it's an impressive complex. Thanks for bringing back some nice memories.
Ah yes. Melbourne Cup Day is fun!!!
Geez, I miss Melbourne! St. Kilda is wonderful...
a i think i payed for that casino ,they always that my money .Thats why te yarra is ther so you can throw yourself in a drown after big loss
