Melbourne's headline attractions form three useful clusters. Around the river are Federation Square, the NGV, Southbank and the central lanes. East of the centre, the Royal Botanic Gardens, sports precinct and Melbourne Museum and Royal Exhibition Building connect culture with parkland. North-west, Queen Victoria Market leads toward Carlton and Royal Park.
Do not treat the list as a single walking route. Choose one or two major institutions, then use the streets, gardens and neighbourhoods between them. Opening days, exhibition tickets and match schedules matter more than the number of pins saved to a map.
