Melbourne - Victoria

 

Melbourne, the capital of Victoria, is a city with something for everyone. From chic fashion stores to buzzing laneway cafes and trendy bars, botanic gardens to sports stadiums, elegant Victorian-era streetscapes to Manhattan-style skyscrapers, film and food festivals to galleries and opulent theatres. Catch a city tram or horse-drawn coach to tour the city. Conceived as a tribute to the first 100 years of Australian nationhood, Federation Square opened on 26 October 2002. Standing in the heart of central Melbourne and linking the city centre with the Yarra River, Federation Square fuses art, architecture, hospitality and promenading into a distinct and striking public space.

Walk the fascinating pathways and historic halls of England as you retrace the steps of the legendary anti-slavery hero William Wilberforce.

 

This full-colour biography of Wilberforce’s life includes descriptions of his work on issues like the abolition of slave trade and the institution of child labour laws. Includes artists’ portraits, plus photographs of historic sites throughout England.
