Check out the Waterwall at Collins St!

This is a wall that we always keep our eyes on - waiting for the next feature.  The current wall feature is pretty awesome.  From far, we thought it is a digital screen of moving water.  We went close to touch it. It is water!

Melbourne Pictorial Map

Melbourne Pictorial Map by Anthony Harvey features a collection of buildings and architectural elements around Melbourne. The map is priced at only AUD3.95, and would add a good collection to your other Melbourne maps. It also makes a good souvenir for those who like to collect classic-looking maps and drawings of buildings. We bought this map from a book store called Readings on Lygon St. Try looking for this map at other book stores or at the visitor info centres.

Readings Books & Music is located on 309 Lygon St, Carlton.

Melbourne Exhibition Centre

There are a number of events held at Melbourne Exhibition Centre from time to time, but entrances to these events are not free. However, we recommend going for a walk around this building to experience a more modern urban design of Melbourne. The quickest way to go from Melbourne CBD is by taking Trams 96 or 109 from Bourke St, or Tram 112 from Collins St; but the best way is of course to walk along the Yarra River for a more fulfilling walking experience.

Melbourne Exhibition Centre is located on 1, Convention Centre Place, South Wharf.

Docklands

Docklands is rather newly developed compared to the CBD. So, if you want to see more contemporary urban design or waterfront design, Docklands would be a good place to visit. In Docklands, some of the main attractions are the Custom Building, where the building facade has been designed with geometrical patterns that create an optical illusion; and several other buildings with eye-catching facades. Walking along the waterfront is relaxing, and you can walk to or from Dockland's Harbour Town - a street mall with retail outlets such as Esprit, Cotton On, Rebel Sports and some eateries.

Docklands is located on the east side of Melbourne CBD.

If you're from the City, catch the City Circle Tram on La Trobe St or Flinders St to go to Docklands. The City Circle tram is free.
