Sightseeing
Remarkable architecture in this city centrepiece, near all the key galleries and museums and across the road from the Arts Precinct. Lovely to wander in the summer. If you follow the side down to the river there are some great little bars and restaurants hidden away.

Go to the top floor bar for a drink and a view. AVOID the restaurant, which is crazily expensive and noisy. The bar is good, and the drink prices are worth it for the amazing views across Melbourne.

Trams and trains are the way to go.
All use the Myki card. There are two loan Myki cards on the front table, which should have a few dollars on them. Most stops in the city and most stations have a machine to check and recharge. Please recharge if you use them.
