Description

Melbourne is the capital city of Victoria.  It maintains an air of old-world grace and refined dignity with spacious tree-lined boulevards and expansive parks.   The prosperous lifestyle of its people is both cosmopolitan and sophisticated.

Quaint trams rumble through the downwown area past verdant gardens and impressive high-rises, in a city that has never lost its endearing charm.

The heritage of more than 100 different cultures contributes to Melbourne's richly international character.  This diverse ethnic mix is exemplified by its range of over 15,000 dining venues offering around 60 cuisines.

Beyond urban outskirts, gracious homes and gardens lie amid the tranquil splendor of the scenic Dandenong Ranges.
