Rugby Tours To Melbourne

Rugby Tours to Melbourne is the coastal capital of the southeastern Australian state of Victoria.

At the city’s centre is the modern Federation Square development, with plazas, bars, and restaurants by the Yarra River.

In the Southbank area, the Melbourne Arts Precinct is the site of Arts Centre Melbourne – a performing arts complex and the National Gallery of Victoria, with Australian and indigenous art.

Indigenous Australians have lived in the Melbourne area for at least 40,000 years.  When European settlers arrived in the 19th century, at least 20,000 Kulin people from three distinct language groups — the Wurundjeri, Boonwurrung and Wathaurong — resided in the area. It was an important meeting place for the clans of the Kulin nation alliance and a vital source of food and water.

Melbourne has long been regarded as Australia’s sporting capital.  Mostly due to the role it has played in the development of Australian sport, the range and quality of its sporting events and venues, and its high rates of spectatorship and participation.

The city is also home to 27 professional sports teams competing at the national level, the most of any Australian city.

Old Melbourne Gaol

When the Old Melbourne Gaol was built in the mid-1800s, it dominated the Melbourne skyline as a symbol of authority.

Inside the Gaol, dangerous criminals were held alongside petty offenders, the homeless and the mentally ill.

Between 1842 and its closure in 1929 the gaol was the scene of 133 hangings including Australia’s most infamous citizen, the bushranger Ned Kelly.

Today you can visit the Old Melbourne Gaol to find out what life was like for the men and women who lived and died here all those years ago.
