Melbourne
Melbourne sits on Port Phillip Bay and pairs major art institutions with markets, reading rooms and gardens. Its centre suits a culture-focused stay, while the wider metropolitan area reaches far beyond it.

Melbourne makes it easy to build a day around a particular interest. NGV International and ACMI focus on different kinds of art and screen culture; State Library Victoria offers historic reading rooms, and Queen Victoria Market gives the day a food stop. The botanic gardens offer space outdoors after the galleries.
What to look for
NGV International's collections and water-wall entrance
State Library Victoria's reading rooms
Produce and specialty stalls at Queen Victoria Market
Useful to know
Pick a central cluster rather than treating all of metropolitan Melbourne as walkable.
Check the market's current trading times before making it the anchor of a day.
