Melbourne Museum
A fascinating museum complex situated in the Carlton Gardens,
the Melbourne Museum is the largest in Australia, with over 30
different exhibits covering history, culture, science, animals and
more. Its most notable galleries include the Bunjilaka, which
explores the history of Aboriginal culture in Victoria, the Science
and Life Gallery, focusing on insects and spiders, the marine world
and Australia's local flora and fauna; and the Children's Museum,
housed in a tilted cube, which offers colourful and interactive
displays. Opened in 2000, the Melbourne Museum is a showcase of
modern exhibition standards, with a three-dimensional Imax theatre
screening documentary films and a resourceful public research
centre, where visitors can investigate any subject they wish.

extended hours and some are open on Saturday mornings.
