Holidays in Docklands

Sick of pointless meetings that drag on forever? How about that awkward water cooler chit-chat? Say 'Bye, Felicia' to work and take off to Docklands, a neighbourhood in the state capital, Melbourne. Want to meet a local or two? No sweat. Around 4,200,000 people live in Melbourne. To reach Docklands from Tullamarine Airport, jump into a taxi and head southeast for 18 kilometres. From the centre of Melbourne, it's 1 kilometre to the west.

Many of this city's attractions are scattered near Docklands, and the Crown Casino and Entertainment Complex and Federation Square are two of the most impressive. After taking a look at those, you'll want to keep going to St. Kilda Beach and Luna Park. For another perspective on Melbourne, take off to NewQuay Promenade and Yarra Riverfront, nearby neighbourhoods just waiting to be discovered.

If you're in the mood for discovering some highlights in the centre of the city, be sure to include the University of Melbourne and the RMIT University. You'd be mad to go back to your hotel room without calling in at the Melbourne Zoo and Melbourne Aquarium as well.

Ask about special events before making your way over to see the displays and exhibits at the Melbourne Museum, the Immigration Museum, the National Sports Museum and the Jewish Museum of Australia.

The hallmark of an excellent show tends to be how thunderous the applause is at the end. Watch the audience rise to their feet at the Forum Theatre, the Regent Theatre, the Sun Theatre and the Princess Theatre.
