Melbourne Botanic Garden

Tu pride flash

Royal Botanic Gardens are regarded among the finest in the world and are one of the best places in Melbourne to visit. The extensive gardens are within the walking distance of the Yarra River and the city centre. They are full of wild life, including fruitbats, which have taken residence high in the tree tops.

Australiana Photolog

Australia is home to many Slovenes and their descendants and is a favoured travel destination for enthusiasts in Slovenia.

Australiana Photolog was launched with thematic albums of Melbourne, the capital of the state Victoria. Its multicultural population is now 3.7 million, over a quarter Melbournians born overseas. Selected images capture the many facets of a dynamic and prosperous city, regarded as the cultural, culinary and sporting centre of Australia, and impressions of urban Australia as it is reflected in its major centre and the state of Victoria in the south-east of Australia.

We invite our Australian public to contribute the photographic records of their own corner of Australian continent with its many diverse landscapes and scenic beauties.

We have begun by presenting the album The Red Centre of Australia, with the Ayer's Rock or Urulu, as it has been named by the oldest inhabitants of Australia and some striking features of this fascinating area.

Australia has become a second home for about 25,000 Slovenes, who started to arrive in greater numbers since 1950. They have settled in all the states of Australia, the majority in Melbourne and Sydney area.

The series of albums has been inaugurated with events in the Melbourne Slovenian community and parallel traditional celebrations in Slovenia, reflecting the common experience of two homelands and frequent exchange visits.
