Car Hire Melbourne International Airport: Things to See

Melbourne is a major Australian city, located in the south-eastern State of Victoria. Visitors to the area often make a road trip out of the city to view the site of the Australian Gold Rush. This 1850s event led to the arrival of a great number of people (from across the world) to live in the city. The modern city has retained some of this cosmopolitanism - the magnificent street art displays are a popular example of the avant-garde nature of the city. Alternatively, cricket fans may wish to visit the Melbourne Cricket Ground. This awesome stadium has been hosting international cricket games since 1877.
