City/town information
"Melbourne is unique for its layered offering. Makers and indie bookshops shimmy up to live-music venues, and cutting-edge galleries nestle neatly into residential neighbourhoods. And that’s before you mention the abundance of mouth-watering brunch, lunch and dinner menus, faultless all-Australian wine lists and welcoming hospitality found across the city. While this outward-facing state capital expands in leaps and bounds, the resident Melburnian's hold fast to their laid-back lifestyle. It’s little wonder that creative talent and entrepreneurs drop anchor here." — Monocle Magazine
