Lonely Planet review for Birrarung Marr

Birrarung Marr, which means ‘River of Mists’ in Wurundjeri, is a park on the banks of the Yarra, providing a scenic route to the MCG via William Bark Bridge and a promenade amble to the Melbourne and Olympic Parks sporting precincts. In its centre, the Federation Bells ring out daily with specially commissioned contemporary compositions. An old railway building in the park, ArtPlay hosts creative weekend and holiday workshops for children aged between five and 12 years – bookings are essential.
