Review: Federation Square
Photos
What's the story here?
Arguably the hub of Melbourne's CBD, Federation Square is a center of cultural activity. You'll find countless museums, live performances, and of course the main Metro hub right nearby.
Fun! Any must-sees?
Whether you're heading out on a walking tour, cruising along the Yarra River, or scoping out a day at the NGV, you're likely going to spend a good chunk of time at Federation Square. Definitely don't miss out on the Ian Potter Center, the Square's gallery dedicated to indigenous art.
Got it. Was it easy to get around?
Federation Square is massive but relatively easy to navigate, and there are plenty of information hubs and custodians to help point you the right way if you're lost.
That sounds cool. All said and done, what is this best for?
If you're looking for a quick crash course in Aussie arts and culture, this is an ideal one-stop-shop.
