Gavin Park - (VIC)

Chang Guan It’s a fantastic experience in the Gaol especially the City Watch House tour. You get to experience being arrested and locked in one of those cells in the Watch House which is just next to the Gaol. As its closure (1994 I reckon) is relatively recent comparing to the Gaol which is basically operated during the Gold Rush, you get to feel the true jail vibe. The Gaol itself has a lot of history and artifacts, it presents stories of iconic prisoners and their historical backgrounds. And if you’re a big fan of Ned Kelly, it can be a brilliant place for his stories.

Yongkang He Amazing place! Arrived exactly at 9 o’clock and got to see the clock show as it rang. The chimes and announcement made the experience even more special. The clock’s design is stunning, and the atmosphere in the shopping center adds to the charm. Definitely worth a visit!.

Daniel Cooks’ Cottage is such a fascinating stop within the stunning Fitzroy Gardens – one of those hidden gems that makes a stroll through the park even more special. Originally built in Yorkshire, England in 1755 by the parents of Captain James Cook, this little cottage has quite the story. Although Captain Cook never actually lived there, the connection to his family was strong enough for Sir Russell Grimwade to go to incredible lengths to bring it to Melbourne in 1934. Every single brick was carefully numbered, packed into barrels, and shipped across the globe – even the ivy came with it! It’s a quirky slice of history nestled among beautiful gardens, and a great way to learn about early colonial ties between England and Australia. Just one of many reasons to explore Fitzroy Gardens – there’s so much more than just green space here!

Dr. Ramakant Rana Altona Miniature Railway is an absolute gem for families and train enthusiasts alike! The volunteer-run hobby club offers a delightful experience with its miniature train rides, perfect for both kids and adults who are young at heart. The beautifully maintained scaled diesel and steam engines provide a charming ride along the 1.5-kilometre track, surrounded by a welcoming and scenic environment. The passion and dedication of the volunteers shine through, making the experience even more special. Visiting on the third Sunday of the month is a treat, and it’s a fantastic way to spend a few hours with loved ones. The affordable prices and friendly atmosphere make it even better. Highly recommend this unique and nostalgic outing!
