The Top Historic Sights
In Melbourne, Australia

Actually visiting and exploring the top Historic Sights of Melbourne, Australia is a much better hands on way of learning How this city was shaped, better than any classroom teacher could ever teach you.

In here I will introduce you to some fascinating top Melbourne Places to visit.

Had I been able to experience the excitement, the romance, the thrill of a face to face encounter with this country's History, I think I would have learned and enjoyed it a whole lot more.

I have selected what I believe to be the top historic sights in my hometown. The history of Melbourne is fascinating, I have visited these personally and as I write each one's review you will be able to click onto the image and check it out.

Melbourne Town Hall	Flinders Street Station	Cooks Cottage	La Trobe's Cottage
Exhibition Buildings	Old melbourne Gaol	Queen Victoria market	Artplay
The Old Malthouse	Free City Circle Tram	City Baths	Como House

When Melburnians say meet me "under the clocks" they mean the huge clock with 13 smaller clocks below it over the main entrance to the station.

These clocks give the time of the next train on all the suburban train lines.

For decades the 13 clocks on the Flinders Street and Princes Bridge corner facade of Flinders Street Station have been the Melbourne rendezvous spot.

Check out the huge Melbourne Town Hall Grand Organ – an instrument that uses ninety thousand cubic feet of air every minute and can produce anything from a delicate whistle to a deafening thunder. Incredible

Visit the grandeur of Como House providing a glimpse into the privileged lifestyle of its former owners, one of Australia’s wealthiest pioneer families.

Take a ride on Melbourne's Heritage Tram the free City Circle tram

Both Local and Overseas Tourist are able to ride a piece of Genuine Heritage Listed Australian History.

The "W" Class Trams, coloured Maroon and Green, travel in a loop around the Business District of Melbourne.
