Melbourne's hidden history |
Royal Botanical Gardens Visitors Centre, Birdwood Avenue South Yarra Melbourne, VIC 3141 +61 3 9252 2300 |
Melbourne was once a very different to how it is now. It was a place where the Bunurong and Woiworung people hunted in the bush land and fished in the Yarra River for thousands of years before white people came. This walking tour aims to rediscover some of this hidden history, all but obliterated by 200 years of white settlement. Commencing at the Visitors Centre, walkers go with a Koori guide through the Gardens that were once rich hunting grounds and ceremonial land, learning about the lifestyles of Melbourne's first settlers and the traditional uses for native plants. Admission: Adults AUD15.40; concession AUD11. Review © 2009, Wcities |
