Melbourne, Victoria

Australia's second largest city is only an 8 hour drive from its first, but it has a very different feel. The baret-wearing artist's answer to Sydney, Melburnians are fiercely protective of their cultured city of 3.4 million. Often ranked one of the most livable cities in the world, Melbourne has an array of activities from the fast-paced nightlife to cultured exhibitions of art and theatre to frenzied sport events, with the spotlight on November's Melbourne Cup. Melbourne is located on Australia's southern coast, in the eastern third of the country.
