Melbourne: frequently asked

Is Melbourne or Sydney better?
Both are world-class. Melbourne for culture, food, coffee, arts and sport. Sydney for the harbour, beaches, Opera House and glamour. Australians argue endlessly — most visitors love both.
What is Melbourne's café culture?
Melbourne pioneered the third-wave coffee movement that has spread globally. The flat white was invented here (contested by Auckland). Every laneway has excellent cafés. Coffee is taken seriously as a craft.
Best Melbourne laneways?
Degraves Street (the classic), Centre Place, Hosier Lane (street art), Caledonian Lane, and AC/DC Lane (named after the band, who formed in Melbourne).
