Holidays in Chinatown

A neighbourhood in the Victoria capital of Melbourne, you’ll want to give yourself a kick in the pants for not visiting sooner. If you love meeting the locals while on the road, Melbourne is full of potential new BFFs. Around 4,200,000 people call this city home. Making your way to Chinatown from Tullamarine Airport is pretty easy. Just grab a taxi and venture 19 kilometres southeast. From there, you'll be located 0.8 kilometres from the downtown area.
This city is teeming with awesome things to do, and many of them can be found near Chinatown. It's no easy task to pick the leading attractions, but the Crown Casino and Entertainment Complex and Federation Square are two you won't want to miss. Don't forget to put St. Kilda Beach and Luna Park on your checklist as well. For a better perspective of this vibrant city as a whole, spend some time in the nearby neighbourhoods of East End Theatre District and Melbourne Central Business District.
Searching for some inspiration on things to do in the centre of the city? Begin by feasting your eyes on the University of Melbourne and the RMIT University. You shouldn't head back to your hotel without swinging by the Melbourne Zoo and Melbourne Aquarium as well.
Leave the little ones with a babysitter and have some grown-up fun at the Carlton and United Breweries, the Australian Centre for the Moving Image and Young & Jackson's.
The area's numerous cultural sites, such as the Australian Centre for Contemporary Art, the Primrose Potter Australian Ballet Centre, the Über Gallery and the Uplands Gallery, have to be seen!
Breathe easy as you check out the stimulating art collections at the National Gallery of Victoria, the Ian Potter Museum of Art, the Linden Arts Centre & Gallery and the Johnston Collection. When you've finished, why not hit up a local café and reflect on your time there?
Look into the glass cabinets and learn all about the objects on display as you meander through the interesting collections of the Melbourne Museum, the Immigration Museum, the National Sports Museum and the Jewish Museum of Australia.
You can't quite beat the feeling of excitement when a performance is about to get under way. Take your seat and wait for the curtains to rise at the Forum Theatre, the Regent Theatre, the Sun Theatre and the Princess Theatre.
The fairways of the Albert Park Golf Course, the Yarra Bend Golf Course and the Westgate Golf Course are calling your name. Work on your putt, challenge some friends to a round and attempt to knock some strokes off your scorecard.
Little kids have bucketloads of energy. Fortunately, there are a number of places nearby where they can blow off some steam. St. Kilda Sea Baths, Melbourne City Baths, the Melbourne Star Observation Wheel and Westgate Park are some great choices.
Step outdoors and appreciate the vistas at Eureka Skydeck 88, Merri Creek Trail, the CERES Community Environment Park and Fitzroy Aboriginal Heritage Walking Trail.
One way of checking the ocean's temperature is by removing your shoes and socks and dipping your toes in. Find out what the water's like at South Melbourne Beach and Middle Park Beach.

Whether you're hoping to go for a relaxing wander or meet up with some friends, the nearby urban parks are great places to be. Take your pick from Royal Park, Carlton Gardens, Fitzroy Gardens and Flagstaff Gardens.
The perfect way to remember your holiday is by returning home with a souvenir or two. See what takes your fancy at Queen Victoria Market, Melbourne Central, Bourke Street Mall and Jam Factory.
Step back through the mists of time at the Swinburne University of Technology, Old Melbourne Gaol, the Royal Exhibition Building and the Victoria University of Technology. These historic sites have lots of educational tales to tell.
Whatever your background or beliefs, it's worth experiencing St Patrick's Cathedral, St Paul's Cathedral, Shrine of Remembrance and Abbotsford Convent.
Slip into some navy blue and white and see Australian rules football (AFL) team the Carlton Football Club in the flesh at Etihad Stadium. As this stadium is also the home arena of the Essendon Football Club and the North Melbourne Football Club, it's a good idea to check the schedule and time your visit with a big game.
