My friend led me to this winter market in Melbourne yesterday. It was one of the most popular places in the city. There were shops and food stores around. It’s a surprise to me seeing people doing silence disco and a clown performing his tricks. The best of the night was snow!!! Can’t imagine it’s snowing at the market. The winter market is operating every Wednesdays with fun activities to carry out. It’s so different from the morning one. Highlights - Snow and everything you couldn’t imagine Avg. Price per Person - Free for entrance Rating - 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 #melbournetrip

Queen victoria market famous sugar doughnuts did not disappoint. It was freshly made on the spot and served hot. Did not know that there was jam inside but eventhough i was never a fan of jam doughnuts, it did not taste bad. The jam was sweet but light. The dough was soo good , not too heavy and soft and the sugar was just right. Price wise: 5 for $10 was a little pricy considering that it was alot cheaper years back. Do drop by when you are visiting Queen Victoria market in Melbourne, Victoria.

#wecreate Buying souvenirs during your travel can be a bit complicated sometimes as it depends on the space on our luggage/bag left, the price and also the weight you have to carry after. But no need to worry as in Queen Victoria Market you will be able to purchase various type of souvenirs. There’s lot of option such as keychains, socks, tote bag, T-shirt, woodcraft and the list just goes on.

Address: Queen St, Melbourne VIC 3000, Australia Amenities: Wet market, dry market, both indoor and outdoor variants, selling raw food, cooked food, service stores and many more Rating: 4/5 Highlight: Burek The largest open air market in the Southern Hemisphere! That’s what google says when I was researching for my trip. Well it’s true, it was really very big! It was really cool being here, soaking in the environment, listening to artists basking outside the market. The whole experience was a treat! What was most impressive to us was just the variety of things being sold at the market. The indoor market had stores selling raw meat, coffee beans, cooked food, toys and just many many different things. Their outdoor market had stores that sold honey, fruits, accessories, clothes, and even had stores that takes pictures of your eye pupils. My main takeaway from this place is the Burek. It’s actually a middle eastern pastry. Usually with flaky dough and stuffed with meat, cheese or potatoes. It’s like a variant of a chicken pot pie, or curry puff. Be sure to try one out if you decide to visit this place! #foodie #tripblazers #urbanexplorer #market

Wait 30 minutes for a bowl of yummy mussels. Like what? But this bowl of mussels from the mussel pot food truck at queen Victoria Market in Melbourne is worth the wait. The queue can be as long as a 45 minutes wait at times. When I was there, there was already a group of people waiting patiently for their mussels and it's no surprise why this food truck is so popular. I had the white wine garlic mussels, served with a slice of crispy bread. The dish was comforting, and the mussels were fresh and tasted garlicky and yummy! Their coconut cream chili mussels was also highly recommended. Now that I m back home, I really miss this dish and food truck alot. I can't seem to recreate the same taste or recipe as The Mussel Pot food truck. Wish I can back in Melbourne for this! #2023travelwish

When I was traveling abroad, I liked to go to the local food market and feel the authentic humanities. The effect of taking pictures and recording videos was particularly good. We generally call this market Wei Ma. Here, you can see wonderful street performers, buy the most authentic Australian cuisine (such as grilled kangaroo meat) and souvenirs, and find Chinese bosses to buy Asian vegetables and spices. The market is divided into several areas, selling raw meat, fruits and vegetables, cooked food, souvenirs, plants, etc., the owner of each store is very warm and hospitable. Especially when closing the door every afternoon, the owner of the vegetable shop will sip a big sale, and you can buy a lot of dishes and go home haha. There are regular events in the market, such as the European Food Festival, Book Fair, Winter Night Market, Photo Exhibition and more. Next week (June 22nd) there is a grand truffle food festival where you can taste a variety of delicious truffle products such as truffle pizza, chocolate, cheese and more. Going to the restaurant to eat truffles is not only expensive, but also difficult to find genuine, but at the Victorian Loose Festival, you can taste the most authentic Australian truffles at the best price! The location is in the city centre and is located in the free tram area. Take tram 19, 57 or 59 to get off at Elizabeth St, or take bus 55 to get off at Peel St. Be sure to check the business hours of the day before you go~ Recommended shops: The Chicken Pantry: has been open for more than 20 years, mainly for sellers of poultry. Also selling the fried kangaroo meat, the taste is very good, not smashing or chaos, and the taste of beef is very similar, it is recommended to visitors to feel it! Bills Farm Dairy Shop: One of the best dairy stores in Melbourne, the cheese variety in the store is very comprehensive. Here you can buy Australia's best quality blue cheese, truffle cheese and more. M&G Caiafa Bakery: This is a bread shop that has been open for more than 40 years. Many locals go from snacks to big ones. You can buy a cup of hot chocolate with fresh hot sizzling, open a full day ~ Rewine Grape Hotel: A wine shop opened by a passionate old couple, mainly selling Australian local wine. It is characterized by the ability to bring empty bottles to refill at a discounted price, which is very environmentally friendly. Joe Leuzzi Florist: The reason for recommending this flower shop is that their shop is a small pavilion on the roadside, and the photo is very good. There is always a street performer next door to the store. It is very literary, very Melbourne~ Koko Black handmade chocolate shop: This is my unlimited chocolate shop! I don't usually like to eat sweet and greasy chocolate, but this family has a lot of handmade chocolates, and the packaging is good for giving. I love to buy macadamia with dark chocolate, slightly bitter, and the taste is not too greasy, delicious and healthy. Market lane coffee: Melbourne's famous coffee chain, currently has six. Coffee beans are baked by themselves and will be replaced by season.

I recently took a trip to Melbourne, and it turned out to be one of the most exciting weekends I’ve had in a long time! The main reason I was there was to catch a concert by one of my favorite bands, but the whole experience became so much more. I arrived on a Friday afternoon, checked into my cozy hotel, and set off to explore the city. Melbourne has such a vibrant energy—there’s always something happening, and you can feel it in the air. I wandered around the laneways, exploring quirky street art and popping into little cafes. After getting settled, I headed over to the concert venue, which was buzzing with anticipation. The atmosphere was electric, and the moment the band took the stage, the crowd went wild. It was amazing to see them perform live, and the acoustics in the venue made it feel like the music was surrounding me. The next day, I spent the morning walking through Federation Square and then hit up the Queen Victoria Market. The food there was incredible! I tried fresh seafood, artisanal cheeses, and some mouth-watering pastries. Then I made my way to a local ramen bar I’d heard about and was not disappointed—rich, savory broth and perfectly cooked noodles. That evening, I treated myself to a fancy dinner at one of Melbourne's renowned fine dining spots. The food was a true work of art; I tried everything from creative cocktails to a perfectly cooked steak that melted in my mouth. The following day, I explored a few more neighborhoods. I stopped by Fitzroy for its cool vibe and popped into a few boutiques. By the time I had to head to the airport, I was full of good memories (and a little too much food, if I'm being honest!). In just two nights, I felt like I experienced so much of what makes Melbourne such a unique and exciting city—from incredible music to unforgettable food and the vibrant street culture. I can’t wait to go back!

Had the best time time in Melbourne in June! It was winter so the temperature was perfectly chilly and cool. Went over for a friend's wedding but managed to squeeze some time for detours to Queen Victoria Market and shopping at Target, Coles and Big W. I'm glad I stayed near Eppings Mall cos it was so convenient to have so many shops and eateries around you when you don't have time to travel too far.
