Up for the Cup
Visitors to Melbourne could find themselves in the midst of the reason why the whole country stops still for a couple of hours with a well timed visit in November.
The date in question is November 6th, when the famous Melbourne Cup takes place at Flemington Racecourse in the city.
Australia's richest and biggest horse race is like the Grand National and FA Cup Final put together, so big a sporting occasion is it, even in a country as sports-mad as Australia.
Visitors staying in cheap hotels will be able to soak up the vibe and perhaps enjoy a punt while watching the action at the racecourse, which is part of a meeting which includes a number of big-money races.
Melbourne also offers fine beaches and a cosmopolitan, melting pot atmosphere, with the al-fresco eating options available being as varied as it is possible to imagine.
