I’d heard about this place growing up, and after visiting it I can see why.

I went there on two occasions. One on the tour (HIGHLY recommended if youre a cricket fan) which was quite interesting, and the second time to watch Aussie Rules.

On the tour, they took us through all sorts of areas of the stadium including the teams rooms and the members stand.

We also got a look through the Australian Olympic Museum which was fairly ok to look at too. Would be better if you were an Aussie and could appreciate what you were seeing more.

I cant remember how much it cost, but for the 2 hour tour it was well under $20AU and well worth it.

Quite a funky little area of town.

I moved to Melbourne not knowing too much about it and prefering to go to Sydney (long story)….

After living there for a year and moving back to my native NZ, I now find myself wanting to go back and live permanently.

This place has it ALL!!!

Culture, food, arts, sports, scenery…. you name it, its here.

I felt that when I first arrived that there wasn’t too much to offer, but the longer I stayed, the more I found – right up until the weekend I flew home again.

A brilliant city.
