Ever walk into one of those shops dedicated solely to the promotion of tea leaves and china. Well, there’s one such shop but it’s located in the heart of the famous Queen Victoria Market in Melbourne, Australia.
If you are a first time visitor to Melbourne, the Queen Victoria Market is a must-see. It is absolutely one of the most organised and pretty markets I have ever seen.

Yes, the fees are a bit on the high side but the facilities are okay. Good atmosphere too. In case, you are wondering, no, I don’t work there. Neither am I receiving a commission for giving it a favourable report. It is simply, one of the better-looking university campuses around this country.
Don’t believe me. Go and take a look.
