Food & Wine
Victoria is famed for its award-winning
food and wine. The state boasts a
fabulous range of quality produce – everything
from roasted venison and barbecued
quail to fresh fruits, vegetables
and cheeses.
Melbourne Theatre
Dozens of theatrical productions
are staged each week in Melbourne,
ranging from mainstream musicals
to classical to experimental works.
Melbourne visitors can enjoy a show
at one of a rich troupe of well-preserved,
older theatres, or attend an outdoor
theatre or innovative, grass roots
performance.
Melbourne Shopping
Shopping in Melbourne is an eclectic
affair – you can choose from
large department stores and sprawling
markets to snazzy basement boutiques
and edgy hole-in-the-walls. And whether
you’re searching for designer
labels or vintage clothing, children’s
toys or high-tech gadgetry, beaded
pumps, Aesop skincare products or
sparkling chardonnay, Melbourne has
it all.
Maps of Victoria
One glance at a map and it’s
obvious that Melbourne is a planned
city: a tidy, balanced grid of neatly
angled streets. But beneath this
sense of everything in its place
restraint lies a restless creative
energy constantly pushing back at
the city’s seeming conservatism.
