Melbourne Museum Melbourne Museum is part of a world class tourism precinct, combining the World Heritage listed Royal Exhibition Building and Carlton Gardens and one of only two IMAX theatres in Australia.

Visitors can take a journey through Aboriginal history, explore Melbourne’s unique and changing tale and marvel at Australia’s legendary racehorse, Phar Lap.

For the little ones there is a world designed just for them, and those a bit older can expand their imagination to the times of the dinosaurs and visit the new Wild! display with more than 750 different animals from around the world. There are also giant crystals, gold nuggets, uncut diamonds and an explosive 3D volcano!

Travelling with V/Line Your V/Line ticket allows you to travel on metropolitan trams, trains and buses at no extra cost. For more information see included metropolitan travel.

Tip: Travelling on V/Line during off-peak times is more convenient and cheaper!
