Melbourne, Australia

Colorful, active Melbourne has an immense appeal for every type of traveler, from cozy cafes, local art, Australian and Aboriginal history, to spectator sports.

Hop on the City Circle Tram loop to check out attractions like the Royal Botanical Gardens and the Healesville Sanctuary, where some animal friends await. Melbourne is also a great place to start your day trips to explore the Great Ocean Road and Phillip Island.

But for an interesting experience, head over to Brighton Beach. While not be an actual town, the colorful chain of beach huts that make their way down the Australian coastline makes for a color hunter’s dream. Whether you want to see the famous Australian flag beach hut or are simply looking for the ones painted in pastel tones, there’s a hut for every mood.
