Brit backpackers reveal why they love Melbourne in Australia

Railway stations like this one on the corner of Swanston and Flinders Streets in Melbourne are often known as the hub of a city.

Our first destination was Australia. It’s a big country with a lot of fascinating places to see, but with a three week time frame, not a lot of time to see it all. Sydney was our first stop before making our way up the East Coast, hitting Hervey Bay, Fraser Island, the Whit Sundays and Great Barrier Reef. From the beautiful blue seas, we headed inland to the magical red desert of Uluru and Kata Tjuta. Our final destination was Melbourne, where we took in the Melbourne Cup, sipped the wines of the Yarra Valley, and drove the Great Ocean Road.
