Federation SquareOccupying a whole city block, Federation Square is one of
Melbourne's major attractions. A cultural nucleus, Federation
Square hosts over 2,000 events a year, in its outdoor public
spaces, St Paul's Court and The Square and vibrant covered space,
the Atrium. Renowned for its unique design, the triangular shapes
that characterise Federation Square actually create an abstract map
of the Australian Federation. Affording spectacular views of the
city, Southbank and the Yarra River, visitors can not only explore
the peculiar design of this cultural precinct, but also visit the
many galleries, cinemas, museums, restaurants and shops that
surround it, most notably the Ian Potter Centre and the Australian
Centre for the Moving Image. Address: Corner of Flinders and Swanston Street Website: www.federationsquare.com.au |
