Roughly 800,000 fans will be attending this years Australian Open tennis tournament held in Melbourne Australia. The Australian Open is one of the biggest reasons why I personally think January is the best time of year to visit Melbourne, the city comes alive and is buzzing with tourists and locals all intermingling and enjoying the best Melbourne has to offer. After living 5 years in Melbourne, I’ve picked up on a few hot spots I’d recommend that truly highlight Melbourne’s charm.
So enough about me, lets get to why you really clicked, here are my top things to do & see in Melbourne. Whether you’re visiting for the Australian Open or simply looking for something to do on your next visit, make sure you add these to your must-see places.
