Holiday trip to Melbourne (visit the city) #2

This time hang around the city to explorer and observe. I didn't go much places because most of the city looks the same with city planning design. The difference between city to city is to see some of the unique architecture building which spice up the atmosphere. I was surprise the city full of ASIAN including 'Hongkie', chinese, korean, japanese and as well as malaysian.
