Melbourne essay

Redesigned and revived industrial and old city areas turned into residential districts, picturesque banks of the Yarra River, spacious gardens, and other places of interest combined with an extreme density of cultural events make Melbourne a great city to visit for any tourist. “Melbourne, Australia.”

A huge continent on the outskirts of the world, a place where it is cold during summer months and warm when it is winter; a place whose inhabitants “walk upside down”; a place where flora and fauna is exotic, dangerous, and unique—many species inhabiting Australia cannot be found anywhere else in the world.

Australia can offer a traveler a lot to see, both in terms of wild nature and urban life. And, speaking of the latter, perhaps one of the most interesting places to visit is the city of Melbourne: the second largest city on the continent.

Melbourne is located on the southeast part of Australia: at latitude 37 degrees 49 minutes south and longitude 144 degrees 58 minutes east. Melbourne’s metropolitan area covers 9990.5 square kilometers, and is inhabited by approximately 4.5 million people.
