Definitely a city icon, great architecture. Easy to get to . Just get off at parliament station .So much history in this building. Highly recommended spot for all tourists to stop by and enjoy. There is also spot to.do.around in this area just walk down collins.
Great museum with good organisation of info. But a bit stuffy in summer time. Poor air ventilation.
Cool Building! Perfect location at the end of a main street. You can see the building when you are travelling in the tram or walking.
Unless you're a history buff or really interested in the gold rush, you won't find this place too exciting. However, the historical panoramas of the city are really neat to compare to the current ones!
This amazing piece of Melbourne history, designed as a strong hold for riches dug up during the gold rush is a must see! Still in use as a Government building, everyone is welcome to come inside and see the historic static displays on the ground floor. Read the exploits of Bush Rangers - see the armour worn by Dan Kelly, Ned's younger brother and death mask of 'Mad Dan' Morgan.
This is a good quick stop if you’re done with the parliament beside this building. There’s a few things to learn here and a nice basement to quickly have a look at. If you have an extra half an hour, this is certainly a nice place to pass by. Not to mention that there is a garden beside here as well.
Located at downtown Melbourne, on a free tram route. So getting there is not an issue and you also have a free entry. One can get to see the history of gold keeping, treasury and stuff. Near by to the Parliament of Victoria and St. Pual's Cathedral.
