Melbourne introduces new tourist attractions  
Destinations  
   

The newest icon of Melbourne, Eureka Tower, has become the latest tourist attraction, after its gates have been opened for the local people officially. Placed close to the Yarra River in the heart of the Southgate Precinct, Eureka Skydeck 88 is known to be the highest public view point in the Southern Hemisphere giving unparalleled views of Melbourne and its surrounds.

Attributing the 'Edge' experience, Eureka Skydeck 88, will have a moving glass cube performing as a huge matchbox having passengers from the inside of Eureka Tower all the way outside of the building. This is fast becoming one of the striking features of Australian tourism, and especially for Melbourne, which is of course experiencing increased number of tourists from around the world.

Besides down the Yarra, the revival of Central Pier follows the development of Melbourne's Docklands precinct. Beneath the management of the Atlantic Group, Shed 14 is being changed and event organisers will select from the four new state-of-the-art venues. So, there is a great deal of enhancement that is being done for tourism of Melbourne, and tourists can expect a real treat for enjoyment.

Peninsula is scheduled to be the Melbourne's magnificent waterside function space. Sketch will be its younger sister. The amalgamation of these two new venues over the water will be the new and better editions of established venues Sumac and Atlantic.  These are migrating from South Wharf, a variant part of the Docklands scheduled for redevelopment.
