OBJECT TOUR AROUND THE WORLD

As far as I can, why not no yes travel guide which presents tourist destinations with a mild but komprehansif; with language that is not rigid and is meant to inform (not sell) and to provide information that is not common and unique. Then had thoughts, why not make your own? I've had time to make a short post about Jogja, and it seems Melbourne is the second city is interesting enough to tell.

Melbourne, Australia's second largest city after Sydney, it should be called garden city because everywhere there is always a park. The first impression when I was there pretty standard: the city is very green. Standard picnic there is usually always accompanied by burning a steak, because the BBQ has become a national culture of Australia. Because so segitunya same BBQ, BBQ government even provides an elevated fire with electricity: you can just press tombok power and offerings will be hot for several minutes. Well here are a number of attractions is quite fun to visit there:

Soverign Hill, Ballarat
This tourist destination that unfortunately that is passed. Soverign Hill is a city of gold producer in Australia of cooked mid-year 1800 the repeated that it becomes a tourist attraction which brings you into the past. Imagine the homes and shops in the old dirt road that traversed the people dressed in 19th-century model and train horses. You can follow the school lessons of that era (and even learn to write with a pen dipped), see how the old steam engine (which still runs perfectly), panning for gold in the river, playing bowling in the past to see the camp of Chinese immigrants. Do not forget to taste the caramel fudge and lollipops are sold in a candy store on Main Street. If you want to test your ability to panning for gold, you'd better not to Souverign Hill during the winter because the river water was freezing hands.

Bourke Street Walk
It seemed to obligatory destination for travelers because it is located in the City (Central Business District of his Melbourne). In Bourke Street there are various souvenir shops and $ 2 of which are suitable for by-by. For a crazy shopping, two large department stores: Myer and David Jones are also located here.

But the most interesting in Bourke Street is a street musician who plays a wide variety of music, ranging from Spanish Guitar to Jazz genre. Make no mistake, they did not ask for a dime, but they offer a CD album. If you visit Melburne Christmas season, Myer always conjure up their storefront window into series appointment audio-animatronics Christmas-themed such as Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer and How the Grinch Stole Christmas.

South Yarra
South Yarra is located in the south river Yarra Melbourne is a rich village. Melbourne Mentengnya lah. Try to pass there during the autumn, later mansions are mostly air-colonial architecture would seem romantically decorated with glowing red leaves brown.

After that you can find barbecue spot on the banks of the Yarra river, and then cook a delicious BBQ steak using a grill that has been provided free along the banks of river. Simply buy beef (or goat) at the nearest supermarket, grilled with butter and sliced onions; give seasoning salt + pepper and eat with BBQ sauce (do not have to use rice!). Australian beef and lamb that was quite tasty, so it does not need to be given a variety of seasonings.

Old Melbourne Gaol
Not my favorite, but according to my sister worthy enough to visit. Old Melbourne Gaol was the first prison in Australia. In this place, Australia's Robin Hood Ned Kelly imprisoned and eventually hanged. What I do not like it ... very scary place. The cells are singup and humid ... like the ghosts of prisoners from the late 19th century still roam there.

There is also a whip (which had been soaked with salt water so much pain when used for whipping), the means of punishment and even mold the head of the inmates who were sentenced to death are made of plaster. The mold is used to study the alleged criminal behavior related to the shape of the head.

Phillip Island Penguin Parade
Suitable for animal lovers. Every afternoon, bird penguin a day in the sea went back to the mainland. In Phillip Island, You can see directly the birds this inosen march toward the mainland and brushed past your feet. There are still single, Who brought their children there. If you want to see pingun from the closest distance, came at the beginning and take a seat close to the beach and close to the point that the penguins.

Melbourne Festival
Held each October to November, a joint agricultural festivals, arts and commerce. There is a shepherd dog contest, contests sheep, cats contest every race, so one Tumpek tin. There are hundreds of booths selling trinkets to food. I used my magic equipment mborong Mr. Magic there. Do not hold the fleece that will come to the stage because of the possibility of sheep have been combed for hours (my brother was never scolded for holding wool).

Healesville Sanctuary
Want to see koalas at close range or shake hands with a kangaroo? Well you should try to Healesville Sanctuary. Unlike Melbourne Zoo, In this place the animals allowed to live freely, aka not stable, so that you can interact directly with the animals (except with Koala because they sleep 20 hours per day).

Do not feed the animals that were there because they generally have a particular diet (my cousin sister ever panic remarkable because it gives bread to a bunch of Ibis bird, the bird untungya okay). It also provided a BBQ grill, so you can close the flora and fauna tours with eating ... other fauna.

Watching Theater
Melbourne proclaimed to be a theater entertainment center in the southern hemisphere. Approximately equivalent of Broadway in New York and West-End in London. Therefore, there is often a popular musical production such as The Phantom of The Opera, Sunset Blvd., And Beauty and the Beast.

Well, watch a musical is an attractive alternative night activities, given the number usually store is closed. Try to find a brochure that is running the show at the Regent Theatre or Princess Theatre; then you can start booking tickets. Musical slightly more casual (and easily more digestible) than Opera, so you do not need to wear evening dress or a penguin suit. Quite a neat and casual clothes. What is clear is turn off your phone (and all the things that make a sound), not to the loo during the show (you can go to the loo at rest), and do not talk during a performance if you do not want didamprat other spectators.

Lord Street
Are you already in the Way of God? I was once. But I mean the Lord Street located at suburban Melbourne. Make funny stories if you took pictures in front of road sign, teruatam akalau you have too much spare time. After that you can play down to the Chadstone Mall which is the largest mall in Victoria. In the area there foodcourtnya stall souvlaki (kebabs sort of typical Greek) is delicious.

Como House
Melbourne have a lot of the old mansion inhabited by a wealthy landowner. Visit stately homes that you can imagine the grandeur of the lifestyle society cream Melbourne at that time. There Rippon Lea old widow who once occupied the Hollywood film lovers, until Werribee Park that the owner committed suicide in the kitchen. But my favorite is Como House which berlanggam Italy. Although not as grand as the Rippon Lea, but Como seemed more alive. Does not feel like a museum.

Mansion composed of two floors only spend a fraction of this vast area. The rest is gardens, ponds, shady trees, and large field inhabited by a pair of cows. According to the guide, taken from Como Lake Como in Italy, where the landlord, Edward Williams, applying for his wife.
