Cityscape of Melbourne, Australia (courtesy, Tourism Victoria)
On This Page:Melbourne Overview
It's rare to find anyone who lives in Melbourne who doesn't adore it. They are much more passionate about it than Sydneysiders are of their city, and it shows. I'm biased, of course, because I've chosen it for my home and here are just a few of the reasons why. Victoria's capital and Australia's largest city, Melbourne (pronounced Mel-bun) is a cultural melting pot. For a start, more people of Greek descent live here than in any other city except Athens. Chinese, Italian, Vietnamese, and Lebanese immigrants have all left their mark. Almost one-third of Melbournians were born overseas or have parents who were born overseas. With such a diverse population, and with trams rattling through the streets and stately European architecture surrounding you, you could forget you're in Australia.
