Holidays in Carlton

Tired of dull meetings that go on forever? How about that awkward water cooler chit-chat? Say buh-bye to work and treat yourself to a break in Carlton, a neighbourhood in the state capital, Melbourne. If you're up for meeting the locals while travelling, Melbourne is packed with potential new BFFs. Around 4,200,000 people call this city home. Arriving in Carlton from the closest airport, Tullamarine Airport, isn't hard. Just jump in a taxi and drive 18 kilometres southeast. From there, you'll be situated 2 kilometres from downtown Melbourne.

A good number of this city's leading sights are scattered near Carlton, and the Crown Casino and Entertainment Complex and Federation Square are two of the most impressive. You should also be sure to visit St. Kilda Beach and Luna Park. While you're in town, think about visiting other neighbourhoods to appreciate more of what Melbourne offers. Lygon Street and Brunswick Street are great suggestions that are close by.

There are countless reasons why so many travellers head straight to the centre of Melbourne. The University of Melbourne and the RMIT University are just a couple of them. The Melbourne Zoo and Melbourne Aquarium should also be part of any outing downtown.

The Carlton and United Breweries, the Australian Centre for the Moving Image and Young & Jackson's are perfect excuses to kick back and relax after a long day.

The Australian Centre for Contemporary Art, the Primrose Potter Australian Ballet Centre, the Über Gallery and the Uplands Gallery are recommended for those eager to learn about the local culture.

Not much calms the mind like visiting a gallery. Indulge your curiosity as you examine the impressive collections at the National Gallery of Victoria, the Ian Potter Museum of Art and the Johnston Collection.

If you luck out and get stuck with some wet weather, seek shelter in the Melbourne Museum, the Immigration Museum, the National Sports Museum and the Australian Racing Museum. The marvellous displays will be sure to keep your imagination buzzing and your clothes dry!

The hallmark of a great performance tends to be how thunderous the applause is when it's finished. See the audience rise to their feet at the Forum Theatre, the Regent Theatre, the Princess Theatre and Melbourne Recital Centre.

Is your golf swing out of whack? Does your alignment need some correction? With brilliant fairways like the Albert Park Golf Course, the Yarra Bend Golf Course and the Westgate Golf Course to tee off at, improving your game will be par for the course.

Are the kids getting restless with all the sightseeing? Have some time out and visit some of the nearby family-friendly attractions. Melbourne City Baths, the Melbourne Star Observation Wheel, Westgate Park and Tech Assault are some much-loved options.

Few things can calm a frantic mind quite like the sights, sounds and smells of the natural world. Experience it firsthand at Eureka Skydeck 88, Merri Creek Trail, the CERES Community Environment Park and Fitzroy Aboriginal Heritage Walking Trail.

Listening to the sound of waves splashing against the shoreline can be quite calming. Let your troubles drift away at South Melbourne Beach and Middle Park Beach.

If the liveliness of the city is getting a bit much, head to one of the nearby local parks. Royal Park, Carlton Gardens, Fitzroy Gardens and Flagstaff Gardens are gorgeous spots to relax under the shade of the trees.

A terrific way to relive your holiday is by going home with a souvenir or two. See what's on offer at Queen Victoria Market, Melbourne Central, Bourke Street Mall and Jam Factory.

Peer back through the mists of time at the Swinburne University of Technology, Old Melbourne Gaol, the Royal Exhibition Building and the Victoria University of Technology. These historic places have a range of interesting tales to tell.

Spiritual sites such as St Patrick's Cathedral, St Paul's Cathedral, Shrine of Remembrance and Abbotsford Convent can give you a better understanding of the region's faith. Immerse yourself in the peaceful atmosphere and take some time to ponder.

Few things in life are as exhilarating as attending a live sports match. Why not see the Carlton Football Club, the Essendon Football Club or the North Melbourne Football Club attempt to claim glory at their home arena of Etihad Stadium?
