Melbourne Cultural Holidays

For a fantastic cultural experience, you can't go past visiting Melbourne Victoria. Probably one of the most culturally diverse areas in Australia, Melbourne offers museums, galleries, festivals, and events to delight the senses and open the mind.

A trip to the Australian Immigration Museum Melbourne is the perfect first stop to celebrate the cultural diversity of Victoria. Situated in the centre of Melbourne city, the Melbourne Immigration Museum explores the stories of people from all over the world, who have migrated to Victoria since the 1800s. The stories are given life with voices, memories, personal memorabilia, and moving images.

For a museum that's a little bit different, try Sovereign Hill, just outside Melbourne, in Ballarat. The museum is open-air, and explores the history of the gold rush period in the 1800s. A nearby creek still contains real gold - if you can get your hands on it first!

Melbourne museums all offer something unique and interesting. The most popular and the biggest of them all is the Melbourne Museum, situated right next to the Carlton Gardens in the city. The museum frequently has new exhibitions, and contains different areas such as evolution, design, mind and body, and science and life - a bit of a change from the traditional, sometimes stuffy museums of the past.

Melbourne isn't just about amazing food, excellent shopping, and entertainment. Just take a stroll through the city and absorb all of the culture that makes Melbourne Australia one of the most interesting and history-rich cities in the country.
