Artsy, stylish and hip: this Australian city reminds most people more of Europe rather than the continent down under. Dubbed as Australia’s cultural capital, the city is a melange of bohemian enclaves, world-class museums, edgy street art and hipster districts that give the city an air of coolness.
On the other hand, the city’s colonial architecture and multicultural population give it more dynamic and cosmopolitan vibes. Located on the large natural bay of Port Phillip, Melbourne is just a stone’ throw away from beautiful natural attractions like the Dandenong mountain range, Mornington Peninsula, and Yarra Valley.
