Melbourne's Gold Museum is located in the suburb of Shufen Mountain, once a gold rush site. This museum contains many local gold ores, as well as the cultural relics and scenes that reflect all aspects of the life and production of gold miners at that time, so that everyone can fully understand the hardships of gold mining life at that time, and the mood of being rich overnight, which is very wonderful. It is worth visiting.

The scale of the Balalaat Botanical Garden is not very large, but there are several warm houses, which are all powered by solar energy, and are very warm all year round. There are many plants planted from all continents of the world. There are many varieties. It is definitely worth visiting.

Melbourne's Wallerby Wildlife Park is a very large zoo, where animals live very freely, just like on the African savannah, you can take a tour bus to have a close contact with giraffes, zebra antelope, etc. You can also take a protective jeep into the Beast Zone and see very fierce lion tigers and cheetahs, definitely the most worthwhile zoo in Melbourne.

Aquariums

The day you were healed by the little penguins at the aquarium, the underwater tunnel at the Melbourne Aquarium has reopened its wings and feels like it's worth it. The newly opened underwater tunnel and lighting, combined with photos, are super beautiful and dreamy. It feels like being in the underwater world. The jellyfish park is very beautiful, and we have been lying in front of the glass cover for a long time. The jellyfish park also has a jellyfish breeding room, and parents with baby colors can book tickets in advance to enter and see the penguin park. I was really shocked to see so many penguins. There is also a pool next to it for other swimmers. It's so cute.! The Happy Feet 4D movie in Penguin Park is 12 minutes long, with the feeling of finding childhood with children. The brain was originally excited to watch and need it, but it was actually taken over by Penguin Park. There are also big stickers, 10 or 3 rings, remember to bring your bank card! I can't use my phone to swipe. Personally, I feel that the aquarium is really a perfect place for couples to date or family outings

In fact, I went to the idea of trying it out. I asked the child if I wanted to withdraw money. The child went to choose the evening. I didn’t expect to harvest a beautiful sunset. Whether it is the Yarra River city or the nearby building on the far seaside, it is a worthwhile trip.

A very good zoo close to the city, the tram is direct, the animal variety is relatively complete, the kangaroo koala is very cute, and the mental state is much better than the animals in the domestic zoo. It seems that Australia is really not very roll. . .

St Paul's Cathedral in Melbourne, built in 1880. This Gothic church features pointed arches and flying support, as if telling a good story. The cross-rib arch spire inside is like a finger of God, and a light stroke can pull the strings of people's hearts. Here, it seems, we can hear the voice from the depths of history and feel the power of faith. Standing in front of St. Paul's Cathedral, we can hear the voice from the depths of history and feel the power of faith. It is like standing on the top of a mountain, as if you can touch the sky closest to God.
