Very cool name for a fairly non-descript lane in Chinatown. I do like the bluestone wall, the cobbletones and the glimpse of the Queen Victoria Women's Centre at the end though. A few of the lanes along there have those nice old fashioned lamps too.
Oh, what a delicious laneway! Have you ever done the Haunted Melb Ghost Tour? At night, very atmospheric, fab photo ops and laneways with lights ever-so-just dispersing the darkness....lol
* It has a lane named after rock band AC/DC and a swimming pool named after a Prime Minister who is believed to have drowned at sea
* Its vibrant multiculturalism
* Royal Botanic Gardens.
* Shady Caroline Street in South Yarra
* The disco balls hanging above Rankins Lane in the city
* The domed reading room of the State Library.
* The eucalyptus trees and old lamps beside the river near Fed Square.
* The huge mural spanning the length of the side wall of Dimmey's discount department store in Green Street Richmond
* The laneways, especially Degraves Street and Centre Place.
* The old terrace houses in the inner suburbs.
* The Royal and Block Arcades.
* The street art (commissioned and otherwise).
* The Victorian architecture, especially the interior of 333 Collins Street, the Olderfleet Building and the Melbourne Safe Deposit Building on Queen Street
* The view of the city at night from the Swan Street Bridge.
* The Windsor end of Chapel Street
* There's always a festival or major event happening.
I think celestial has left the buildings if it was ever there. :-)
ReplyDeleteI suppose I have walked along it. I must do so again and keep my eyes open. It looks great.
