East Melbourne Destination-Information Listings

East Melbourne

East Melbourne is an inner city suburb of Melbourne, located between the CBD, Jolimont and Richmond. Walk through the quiet residential streets to see some of Melbourne's largest and oldest Victorian homes and terrace houses. Explore the green expanse that is Treasury Gardens. Walk the extensive system of pathways that meander through the park and connect directly to the Fitzroy Gardens, or from the large embankment that runs the length of the gardens and offers extensive views. The garden's fine lawns are a lunchtime retreat for many city workers, as well as being an ideal place for a picnic, barbecue or kick of the football. While in East Melbourne take a tour of the famous Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG). As a super stage of Australian sport, the Melbourne Cricket Ground traditionally has provided the live drama to thrill millions worldwide. But backstage the Melbourne Cricket Ground Tours provide a treasure trove of sporting history and an unforgettable experience. For a quick and cheap authentic Vietnamese meal, head to nearby Victoria Street, and for current season's styles at bargain prices make a beeline to the factory outlets and warehouse shops that line Swan Street and Bridge Road in Richmond.
