Australia's second city doesn't see itself as the little brother. Packed with continental charms and a creative bent to spray a can at, this is an Aussie that holds its own. And comes up tops. Don't believe us? Grab flights to Melbourne which is consistently rated among the world's most liveable cities in quality-of-life surveys, and for good reason.
Any city that boasts a tram system recognises the timelessness of beauty. And it's not the only gem you'll find in this avant-garde city. Add the nation's best artists, most thriving gallery scene, the hottest ad shops, the Melbourne Arts Festival and gorgeous inner city graffiti - and it all points to the continent's cultural capital.
Lace up your trainers and practise your cheers. Melbourne is sports mad. The city hosts many epic battles, so there's almost always something on - and the atmosphere is electric. There's the Australian Open, the Melbourne Cup, Audi Sailing Week, the F1, the International Airshow, Rip Curl Pro surfing, Aussie Rules Football. Want us to go on?
In a Europe down under way. Although you won't find natural spectaculars, you'll love the ornate Victorian-era architecture, leafy, established boulevards and the city's gorgeous trams. There's also loads of contemporary elegance like at Federation Square. And with so many locals on bicycles, it has that grand old-world feel, made new.
Sick of mall culture? Fed up with chain stores? Melbourne is the antidote. With over 12 big markets, there's everything from eclectic fashion to fresh produce. Don't miss the huge Queen Victoria Market (The Vic) with more than 1000 stalls. Foodies head for Prahran Market, fashionistas hit Greville Street and art lovers wouldn't miss St. Kilda's Sunday market for all the reprints in the world.

Excellent Bangkok hotel and the lady who met me at the airport and the private driver were brilliant. Singapore hotel good too. Flights all OK. Melbourne to Singapore was the best flight by far.
