Introduction of Melbourne attractions

Melbourne is the second largest city in Australia, Mexico City for short, and the capital of Victoria. The following is an introduction to Melbourne attractions that I have compiled. Welcome to read, for reference only.

1. Sovereign Mountain Gold Mine

Sovereign Hill in Melbourne is a gold mining area from 185 1 to 1855. Now, the whole town has become an outdoor activity museum. In the Eureka Center and Deborah Gold Mine in the center, there are traces of Australian ancestors opening up the frontier, telling the history of gold panning in 1950s and 1960s, and showing the actual face of Sovereign Hill during the gold panning boom in 1960s.

2. San Kilda

St Kilda is a coastal city in Melbourne's inner and southern districts, only 7 kilometers away from Melbourne and located on the east bank of Phillip Bay Harbor. Due to its geographical location, St Kilda has always been a seaside resort in Melbourne. With the passage of time, St Kilda and Melbourne have also developed into a modern city, attracting many overseas tourists. St Kilda has quietly become a seaside tourist city in the world.

3. Royal Melbourne Botanical Garden

It has a long history. Victoria at that time was an area called Philip Bay under the jurisdiction of the New South Wales colony from 65438 to 0845. Charles latrobe, the chief executive of this area, has a special preference for plants. He personally led the botanists and benevolent masters in the society to inspect the place where the Botanical Garden was now a virgin forest, and decided to invest by the government and raise funds from the society to build the Botanical Garden. 1848, the botanical garden was officially opened to the outside world, becoming the earliest national botanical garden in Australian history.

4. Wellington Hill

Located 20 kilometers west of Hobart, about 20 minutes' drive, with an altitude of 1270 meters. There is a viewing platform at the top of the mountain, overlooking the whole Hobart and derwent rivers, and enjoying the snow scene in winter. Mount Wellington has become the first choice for tourists to watch Hobart because of its unique geographical location.

5.Dayang Road

The coastal scenery of Dayang Road is one of the best places in the world. There are peaceful bays, surfing beaches, tropical rainforests, caves and vents, as well as world-famous scenic spots-the strange natural stone pillar "Twelve Apostles Stone" standing in the ocean. However, due to the erosion of the waves, several of the twelve apostles have fallen, and will continue to decrease in the future, so they are definitely "limited edition" beauties! Dayang Road is 250 kilometers long, and you can also see historic shipwrecks and various wild animals along the way. Driving on the winding coastal highway is definitely a feeling of shooting a blockbuster!

6. St Paul's Cathedral

St Paul's Cathedral is located diagonally opposite to flinders Street Railway Station. Built in 189 1, this magnificent church is the earliest English church in Melbourne and one of the most famous landmarks in Melbourne. The cathedral is made of bluestone with fine lines on the walls. 1932, the church added three minarets to make it look more magnificent. Under the high roof, glazed tiles and log tables and chairs look quaint, and many exquisite and colorful sculptures can be seen. There are colored paintings on every glass door and window here, telling different Bible stories, and many details are worth savoring slowly.

7. Phillip Island

For Melbourne residents, Phillip Island is a beach resort for surfing, boating, fishing, water skiing and other activities, while Shilu Beach near Cape Nobis at the southwest end of Phillip Island is a protected area for elf penguins. This penguin is the smallest penguin in the world, with a height of only 30 cm. At sunset, penguins can be seen returning home from the sea in droves. Because of their petite size, it is very interesting for them to stagger together.

What are the famous tourist attractions in Melbourne?

Federation Square, Federation Square

This is the best starting point for exploring Melbourne. A surreal building in the square completely broke the initial impression of Melbourne's classical style.

Federation Square is one of the most cutting-edge and largest building projects in Victoria, which combines advanced and avant-garde architectural design. The Federation Square covers the whole inner city area, connecting the Central Business District and the rivers in melbourne central, and integrates many functions such as art, activities, leisure, sightseeing and open space. Ian Porter Center is also located in Federation Square, which is the seat of the National Gallery of Victoria and the first public museum with the theme of Australian art in the world. ..

The Commonwealth Plaza, which opened on June 5438+ 10, 2002, is the largest project in Australia in recent years, with a cost of 450 million Australian dollars, which can accommodate 10000 people. Every year, about 500 grand events are held in Federation Square, and Melbourne citizens who could not accept this square gradually like it and are proud of it.

Everyone's love for Federation Square is attributed to the abstract and peculiar buildings around it, including the visitor service center, the National New Museum of Victoria (NGV), the indoor performance hall (inside BMW edge), the SBS Media Building, the transportation hotel, the art gallery, the restaurant store and so on. In particular, the atrium building is very eye-catching, consisting of steel and transparent glass with geometric figures. It connects the passage between flinders Street and Yalu River, and is also cut by a building called Crossbar, which is dominated by restaurants and cafes. The high ceiling and transparent glass not only let the external light source shine in completely, but also blend in with the adjacent classical buildings, successfully interpreting the comparative concepts of "tradition and modernity" and "antiquity and creativity".

St. Paul's Church

This is an Anglican church, located at the intersection of flinders Street and Swanston Street. Together with St. Patrick's Cathedral in the government office street and St. John's Episcopal Church in South Asia, this church has become the three major Gothic buildings in Melbourne.

St Paul's Cathedral was built in 1866, replacing a much smaller church with the same name on the original site.

The process of building the church was hindered by various difficulties. There is a big argument between the British architect William butterfield and the Church Building Committee. Butterfield was very disdainful of the Committee's design idea of making the church face the noble bridge and selecting stones. The construction of the church began on 1880, but butterfield officially resigned on 1884. Architect Joseph Reid is responsible for supervising the final project.

There are many unique functions inside the church, including the altar door made in Italy, marble inlaid with glass and striped marble, and the organ made by Louis and his collaborators in London. There is also a set of clocks composed of 13 Jason Chung in the church, which is a rare treasure outside the British Isles.

Bluestone is the main building material of this Gothic cathedral. The stained glass windows, glazed tiles and wooden equipment inside make St. Paul's Cathedral more solemn and elegant.

St Paul's Church is free, and its doors are heavy. Walking into St. Paul's church, the indoor lights are dim and there is a dignified cold feeling. The church is relatively empty in space, with high roofs and beautiful stained glass, with obvious western flavor, giving people a feeling of going back in time to ancient Europe, solemn and grand.

victorian arts centre

If you look at the Yarra River in Federal Square, the sunlight will be immediately attracted by the steeple in the shape of a ballerina. That's where Melbourne's famous landmark, victorian arts centre, is located.

The art center designed by architect Roig Grounds has been open for more than 20 years and has been providing Melbourne residents with a rich artistic feast. There are often big concerts, plays and dances here. The art center is divided into three parts, one is the theater under the steeple, with a height of 162 meters; First, Melbourne Concert Hall; The other part is the National Gallery of Victoria.

The theater under the steeple is built on St. Kodak Road. The six-story building has five floors underground, and three performance halls are also underground. The largest national theater can accommodate 2067 people, mainly as a performance venue for operas, ballets and musicals. This theater can accommodate 800 people and is mainly designed for theatrical performances. There is also an exhibition of indigenous art in the lounge. The smallest experimental theater (George Fairfax Studio) can accommodate 350-450 people and is a multifunctional performance room.

If you want to fully appreciate the luxurious design in the theater, you can further understand the facilities that meet the standards of "good theater" through the explanation of the staff. Even if you can't see the performance inside, you can take this opportunity to open your eyes. In addition, the art center has specially opened a backstage dressing room for tourists to visit, and tourists can take photos in various costumes and have a star addiction.

The construction of this multifunctional performing arts center began in 1973, and its premiere was in 1984. The Art Center not only attracts world-class artists, troupes, operas and ballerinas to perform here, but also is an important gathering place for Melbourne's social and cultural activities.

For a tourist, the art center is the best place to appreciate Melbourne's artistic temperament. The Art Museum is a building with oriental colors. The spring water flows down the whole glass wall of the gate, and the gate of the art museum is guarded by a huge statue called "Angel". Angels have no wings. To be exact, they are a bit like small animals with three legs and two heads. Colorful colors and totem patterns, perhaps this is the angel in the artist's fantasy. The tower of the theater building is a ballet skirt, and the dance skirt at night flies out of the brightest light on the Yarra River. The theaters are all underground, small and chic. The floor of the small theater is earthy silver, and the chairs are pink; The carpet in the theater is dark purple and the chairs are bronze. The seats in the Grand Theatre are bright red, which is the traditional color used by the British Opera House. The ceiling of the Grand Theatre consists of 7500 mirrors. When the light is turned on, the reflected light and shadow are like the milky way in the sky. The acoustics of Melbourne Concert Hall are second to none in Australia. The stage is at the bottom, as deep as the bed of the Yarra River. 2677 seat covers are all made of sound-absorbing pure wool. The walls are all buffalo hide. Each square is made of buffalo skin. A * * * used 1000 buffalo. Wool sound-absorbing carpet near the stage, equipped with 30 sound discs. Change the suspension level according to the different music played. The ceiling and floor of the concert hall are carefully sketched by landscape painters, such as sand, coral blue, gray and light purple, which all represent the colors of Australia. The audience is in the concert hall, as if on a mound with an inclined hole. Appreciating the symphony in such a "natural" environment is the creativity of Melbourne people, and the perfect integration of nature and human atmosphere is the charm of Melbourne.

Every year, about 6.5438+0.2 million people come here from all over the world to enjoy various performances. The restaurant in the art center also offers a variety of delicious food. There are also many outdoor cafes and shops along the Yalu River, where you can taste mellow coffee and enjoy shopping. At night, victorian arts centre is brightly lit, shining the night sky of Melbourne, like a string of pearls embedded in the night scene of city lights.

royal botanic gardens

Melbourne Royal Botanical Garden was built in 1845, covering an area of about 40 hectares. Its design adopted the garden style of19th century, and some buildings and features of the last century have been preserved to this day. Most of the flowers and trees planted in the park are rare exotic treasures and Australian native plants, bringing together more than 12000 kinds of flowers and plants from all over the world. In addition to all the original plants and flowers in Australia, 20,000 kinds of plants have been cultivated.

In the Botanical Garden, a tree named "Separation Memorial Tree" in Victorian history is worth mentioning. 185 1 year is an encouraging year for Victorian people. This year, gold was discovered in Victoria. At the same time, this British territory, originally a colony of New South Wales, was approved by Britain to establish a separate colony. To commemorate this historical event, the Governor of Victoria Colony planted this eucalyptus in Melbourne Royal Botanical Garden. This red eucalyptus tree has been preserved to this day, and it has witnessed the development history of this city.
