Melbourne:a city I want to travel to

As St. Augustine said, “The world is a book and those who do not travel read one page.” I am a person who wants to travel all over the world in the future and to enjoy the scenery in different places. Melbourne is the city I want to travel to most. As the second biggest city in Australia, Melbourne is prosperous and populous.
The first reason why I feel like visiting Melbourne is because it is often referred to as the “cultural capital in Australia.” Melbourne is the birthplace of cultural institutions, such as Australia film, Australia television, and Australia dance styles. Melbourne is an international cultural centre with a long history. It is the second city after Edinburgh to be named a UNESCO City of Literature. Many of the old buildings are classical and splendid, such as Victoria Arts Centre, Rialto Tower, and St. Paul’s Cathedral.
The second reason is that the natural scenery in Melbourne is extremely beautiful. There is an abundance of parks and gardens in Melbourne, and the Fitzroy Garden is one of the most famous. I prefer the scenery in the countryside of Melbourne. It feels like that everything is pure and peaceful there: the blue sky, the write cloud, the verdant grass, and many kinds of animals. The first time I saw a photo of koala, I felt it was so cute that I would go and see a real one in the future anyhow.
Melbourne has many other features that will attract visitors. I hope, one day in the future, I will stand in the countryside of Melbourne and play with a koala happily. I am looking forward to the day’s coming.

  2. At the first, I was attracted by your title because I want to visit Australia, too. And after reading, my wish becomes stronger. Maybe we can go to Melbourne one day together.

  3. I also want to travel all over the world. In my mind, Australia is a country with lots of grass and different kinds of animals. I also like Koala very much. It's cute. By the way, may I see a kangaroo walking on the streets in Melbourne? The city I want to visit most is Los Angeles where I can watch a nba game of Lakers and visit the Hollywood. Maybe I will meet a super star accidentally.

  4. I'm sorry. I'm not sure whether you could see a kangaroo walking on the streets in Melbourne, but you can have a close touch with a kangaroo in zoos.

  5. I am also eager to travel all over the world one day. Yeah~ Austrilia is a place I must travel( but maybe not the first plact)I am curious about this special continent. Someone said "with 10 thousand dollars, you cannot buy a house in a big city, but it is enough to travel the world" I want to realise this dream as soon as possible. Hope you will have a good trip in Melbourne. Hope you will achieve it soon!
