Trip to Melbourne, Australia 🇦🇺
When we first reached Melbourne, we started our day with a leisurely stroll through Melbourne's laneways, known for their vibrant street art, charming cafes, and eclectic shops. We started from Hosier Lane and explored around laneways like AC/DC Lane and Degraves Street.
📍Federation Square, Melbourne VIC 3000,
We also visited the iconic Queen Victoria Market, one of the largest open-air markets in the Southern Hemisphere. There were many stalls selling fresh produce, gourmet foods, clothing, souvenirs, and more. The market is definitely worth to visit 💯
Queen Victoria Market
📍Queen St, Melbourne VIC 3000.
We also experienced Melbourne's cultural scene by attending a performance at one of its renowned theaters, such as the Melbourne Recital Centre and Arts Centre Melbourne. Do checked out their schedules for concerts, plays, or dance performances to prevent disappointment 🤣
Besides, we also took a scenic stroll along the Yarra River, starting at Southbank Promenade and crossing the pedestrian bridges for panoramic views of the city skyline. We accessed the Southbank Promenade from along the river and we also visited the most famous Brighton Beach to see the iconic Brighton Bathing Boxes, a row of colorful wooden huts lining the shore. We enjoy a very relaxing afternoon on the beach and took a swim in the refreshing waters of Port Phillip Bay.
📍Brighton Beach is located in the suburb of Brighton, accessible by train from Melbourne's city center
I would also recommend you to try my favourite restaurant, Cumulus Inc. It is a popular dining spot located in Melbourne's central business district that has a contemporary Australian menu with a focus on seasonal and locally sourced ingredients. This restaurant has relaxed atmosphere, stylish decor, and excellent service 🙌🙌 Prices vary depending on the menu items and drinks chosen, but we spent around $50-$70 AUD per person for a meal. The food was all very delicious and definitely worth to try out!

Street art alley in melbourne
The infamous Hosier lane, the one where everyone keeps saying to me that if you visiting melbourne this place is a must. And so I went there what I see was impressive 👏 although it is kinds of messy. Well I guess Street arts are supposed to be messy so all good I think 🤔. There were a fews that look super interesting to me and I kind of wish someone didn't paint over it with some scrabble words.

graffiti walls in Melbourne
#celebratewithtrip
in Melbourne you will find many walls filled with colorful graffiti painting and this is really beautiful making it a really pleasant city to be in. you can actually head to hoiser lane and see that there’s so many of them but do bear in mind this is a tourist spot so it might get crowded in the day. nevertheless it is still a must visit. otherwise you can just admire the random street arts on random streets. my personal favorite is the bears as it’s really cute. suggest for you to take a picture in hoiser lane and the angle has to show the slope and the sides of the walls as you will be able to capture a lot of the art pictures.

Melbourne is a very nice city to visit in Australia and would suggest a week trip here if you have time. you can also go on a road trip starting from Melbourne but do spend a few days in the city itself first before going on the road trip. things to do include visiting really cool and grand cafes in Melbourne , all coffee is really nice in the various cafes. would suggest visiting higher ground cafe as it’s a more popular cafe in Melbourne. and to visit lune croissants for some of their nice croissants and bakes. visit attractions like the hoiser lane street art and also the central business district. overall Melbourne is a fun and exciting place to be at.

Hosier Lane, Melbourne
Hosier lane is famous for its sophisticated urban art and helps give an artistic relief for the otherwise unwanted group of outlaws known as graffiti artists.
The lane is situated just opposite to Federation square near the Forum Theatre.

In fact, many walls on the streets of Melbourne have graffiti, or characters, or animals, or image lines. In short, they are all personalized. The Graffiti Street at Hosier Lane in Hosier Lane is famous because it is a graffiti, the largest area, and the graffiti update speed is fast. In fact, some graffiti areas are quite dirty, that is, garbage dumps, but they can't stop the enthusiasm of everyone taking pictures, and they have come to visit here. The location is southeast of St. Paul's Cathedral, diagonally across the Federation Square, next to a Spanish restaurant, an alley. Everyone is taking pictures. In fact, through inkjet to express your own personality, it is quite a literary way, but also some painting talent, not everyone can be so beautifully painted. Perhaps the graffiti that I see now is gone in two days. There will always be more people coming here to create, leaving traces of creation. For tourists, this is the punching place, and the photo taking is over, it won't take too long.

Maybe you have seen many times of Melbourne's Graffiti Street on the Internet, you can find the unfamiliar pattern on the spot, because the graffiti in Hosier Lane is the fastest place to change in the city, sometimes just after a day, The lane was replaced with a new one. Located across from Federation Square on Flinders Street, it is the iconic street art laneway of the Central Business District. If you like a concave styling, don't miss it, you can take a lot of cool and cute photos!

Melbourne | I spent an afternoon in Fitzroy looking at graffiti.
On the first day I arrived in Melbourne, I couldn't wait to follow Jay Chou to check in at Hosier Lane (Hosier Lane). It was really disappointing. The graffiti in the narrow alley was really average, and I could smell the garbage. 🤦🏻.
At that time, I thought that Melbourne's graffiti culture was nothing more than this (not as good as M50 Creative Park in Shanghai), until I came to Fitzroy‼ ️
.
Take the No. 11 tram from CBD for more than 20 minutes to reach it. The destination is set to The Fitzroy Mills Market. I thought I could catch a set or something, but there was no one there, but the high-quality graffiti all over the place really surprised me. 🤩.
.
The road is blind and I don’t know how big Fitzroy is. I started from the market and made a big circle. I didn’t let go of the small alleys. I collected a lot of favorite graffiti~
As for the world's best croissant shop recommended by everyone, I reported a silk, and I didn't pay attention at all. 🤪.

In Melbourne, art is always young
When passing by the graffiti wall, a friend asked me
Do you have anything you want to draw, alive
I hummed Zhao Lei's song, this can't be said
🎼: Melbourne, the global center of graffiti art!
The most famous is the graffiti district, Flinders Lane (Hosier Lane) and AC/DC Lane
Flinders Lane, you must find a local friend to stroll around, its hidden graffiti is really not few. A deep alley, every day there are a large number of tourists rushing to, many graffiti artists like to leave their names, and more lovely, also painted themselves up. Imagination is the core of graffiti painting, ACDC Lane is inspired by artists, a rock graffiti street with exploding music cells.
Online a lot of comments, Melbourne is the top student of citywalk, haha, this is also very interesting, if you really do not know how to play, directly search Jay Chou check-in point, Jay Chou loves Melbourne more than you.
Here, you will deeply feel that Art will never die, everything will grow old, but art is always young, from the heart, just like this city.

Melbourne's Graffiti Lane was chosen by Lonely Planet as the first choice for Australian cultural attractions. It is a paradise for graffiti and a holy place for graffiti art.
This alley is called Hosier Lane, adjacent to St. Paul's Cathedral. Not only can you enjoy a lot of unique graffiti art, but you can also see the graffiti master painting on the spot.
In this artistic place, I asked the street youth to borrow a skateboard, and it is also necessary to take a props.

The artistic sense of the cat's street is derived from the Victorian buildings, in addition to the graffiti that can be met from time to time. There is a Hoiser Lane in the city, because graffiti has become one of the important attractions of the cat. When I was in the circle of friends, someone replied to me: "As an art student who graduated from the oil painting department, do you really think that these street graffiti can be regarded as art?" Strange, it must be high, and must be displayed in the museum. Can a work be called a work of art? Although graffiti is difficult to be elegant, its grounding makes the so-called art more interactive with the masses. The person who sees the work decides the possibility of re-creation, and there is nothing wrong with it, I like it. In the years after I graduated, I felt that it was better to go to the scene to see the expressions of others watching the works in the textbooks. In fact, most people should not read those treasures, but they are street graffiti. Can Bo people smile. The point is that the photo is still beautiful.
