Australia's most beautiful coastal scenery! The first attraction on our way was the Aireys Inlet lighthouse. This was the first lighthouse on the Great Ocean Road, and there was a name called White Queen. amazing! 😘
After stopping at the arches of the Great Ocean Road to take pictures, it took about 2.5 hours to drive to the coastal town Apollo Bay, which took 2 hours to reach the independent reefs standing in the Pacific Ocean after millions of years of weathering and seawater erosion. The twelve disciples in the storm are shocking!💡

Lucky enough to get this shot before the sky gone cloudy. Our trip down the Great Ocean Road was not smooth due to the unpleasant weather. However, we were still amazed by the beauty of mother nature. And not to forget to mention about the extremely strong wind that almost blew us off during our visit to Twelve Apostles.

[self-driving Great Ocean Road, beautiful coastline]
It is said that the Great Ocean Road often rains. When we go, most of them are sunny. When the twelve disciples approached the end of the day, they began to cloud, forming a special twelve-day disciple of Haitian. Wonderful scenery ~
Great Ocean Road is also very suitable for aerial photography ~

Melbourne Discovery Shop | This humble little shop is said to have the best coffee in Melbourne!
Melbourne, like Helsinki, is also a city with a very large amount of coffee consumption. The more inconspicuous street cafes, the better the coffee here. The small shop "Patricia Coffee Brewers" hidden in the corner of the cat office CBD high-rise building has no exquisite decoration, even no seats, but it has the best coffee in Melbourne!
When we arrived, there were a lot of people waiting in line to buy coffee. Most of them were office workers who were busy sneaking around in the office building. When they bought it, they gathered directly at the door of the store to drink. Very casual ~ point to the classic flat white, drink the first bit to know why this is so popular, really awkward, good, drink!
He can also buy 4 kinds of coffee beans. There are 3 kinds of low caffeine white coffee WHITE, regular black coffee BLACK and FILTER hand coffee. They should be other self-baking coffee shops. Provided, the "thanks to" list saw the Seven Seeds that had been drunk before.
Such standing only take-away coffee shop is very grounded. If you don't care about the environment and just want a cup of good coffee, you must be here.

Australia is disappearing in the wonders of the world, it is too late to go.
Speaking of "Twelve Apostles" The first thing that comes to mind naturally is the "twelve disciples" recorded in the Bible. It is said that the number of "twelve" has a special meaning, as if the Old Testament had twelve Israel. There are twelve gates in the New Jerusalem, twelve angels on the door, twelve foundations on the wall, and so on, as if to prove that this is a different number from the others. In Melbourne, Australia, there is the existence of this twelve disciples.
Melbourne's Twelve Apostles actually refers to the Twelve Apostles, which is located on the Great Ocean Road in Victoria Island, Australia, in the Port Campbell National Park. We started from Melbourne by car, and it took about 3 hours to walk along the Great Ocean Road. The Twelve Apostles are actually 12 sandstones on the Pacific Ocean, because after thousands of years of baptism of the waves and sea breeze, because the number and form are similar to the twelve disciples of Jesus, it is called the twelve disciple.
Because of the erosion of day after day, the earliest "twelve disciples" are only seven and a half now. Some people say that this is a gift on the most beautiful road in the world. It is nature giving people If you don't look at it anymore, one day you will lose it. Just like no one knows, the day when the fire in Notre Dame in Paris will happen, the landscape here will suddenly collapse. So be sure to hurry up time~
It is said that the most recent collapse occurred in 2005 when a little boy and his parents witnessed the moment of the collapse, the last second of the rock still perseverance in Neri, It can be as short as 35 meters in the next second. Research scholars have said that the wonders here will all disappear one day. The moment you see is actually history.
Finally, in addition to self-driving, you can also choose to take a helicopter, but there are many people, you must make an appointment in advance, and consult the corresponding price, about 20 minutes, a few hundred Australian dollars.

The Great Ocean Road, located in the west of Melbourne, was built by the Australian government for the soldiers who died in the First World War. Construction began in 1919 and was completed in 1932, with a total length of 276 kilometers. The
White Queen Lighthouse is the most beautiful of the eight lighthouses on the Great Ocean Road. It is not only an important navigational guide in Victoria, but also one of the many navigation warning lights on the coastline of the Great Ocean Road. The
Lorne Trestle Bridge extends to the center of the sea and the scenery is unique.
How can you not mention the twelve disciples in the Great Ocean Road? This is the landmark and the most enduring scenery. Although the twelve rocks have only seven remaining baptisms after thousands of years of sea breeze and waves, they have been carved into a human face by nature, seemingly sad, just like gentle, skillful. The
Loyard Valley is adjacent to the Twelve Apostles. It is a spectacular U-shaped canyon formed by towering cliffs with sandy beaches and azure waters. The reason why the
London Broken Bridge is famous is that it was once connected to the mainland by a natural bridge. The bridge collapsed in January 1990, and two frightened tourists were trapped on the newest island in the world. They were broadcast live on the whole process of being rescued by helicopters, so they are widely known and come here. Grotto is a natural cave formed by the erosion of limestone by seawater for thousands of years. It is covered with vegetation and is a wonder.
Driving on the Great Ocean Road, so many beautiful scenery can be said to be climax, surprisingly continuous, there is no second road in the world can be comparable.

Arrive in Melbourne, pick up the car at the airport and head straight to Geelong, which is the first stop on our Great Ocean Road.
Geelong is the second largest city in Victoria after Melbourne. It is the entrance to the Great Ocean Road. There are beautiful beaches. The biggest feature is the lovely human-shaped bollard on the shore.
Today's weather is superb, the blue sky and the blue sea are in a line. This is just the round-the-island cycling race. The roads along the coast are surrounded, and there are various entertainment activities on the side. A lot of prizes.

The sunset of the encounter is more touching than the deliberate one. The weather from the Great Ocean Road back to Melbourne is also very exaggerated. The rainstorm has been repeated for several times, but I did not expect to return to the city and happened to catch up with this. The beauty of the field is rich in color.
The charm of travel is not here? More than enough surprises.
I don't remember what the port is called, just next to our Sebel Docklands hotel.

Wilson promontory national park, the southernmost tip of mainland Australia.
Went to Wilson promontory national park with my friend. This is the place for the people who enjoy away from urban life and get closer to nature. Located in south east part of Victoria, Australia.
In Wilson promontory national park you’re able to encounter lots of wild animals, kangaroos, emu, wallaby, or wombats
There’s few interesting spots in Wilson promon national park
Swim at Norman Beach - just a few minutes' walk from Tidal River Campground, or go snorkelling for a unique underwater view of Victoria's largest marine national park. Bring the family and camp in comfort at Tidal River. Choose from powered or unpowered sites or stay in roofed accommodation.
Scale the granite peaks of Mount Oberon for sky-high panoramic views over the sea and a majestic sunset. Mount Bishop is a great alternative. You can walk to the summit from the Lilly Pilly car park or take the side track while on the Lilly Pilly Circuit walk. At the top, you'll see amazing views of the Prom's west coast and offshore islands. For a wider view over the National Park, head for lesser-known Vereker Outlook.
For adventure seekers, enjoy an overnight hike in The Prom. In the north there's a remote and rugged wilderness to explore, while the south is home to the historic Wilsons Promontory Lightstation and Sealers Cove.
Feel the sand between your toes at some of the more secluded beaches of Wilsons Prom, from Cotters Beach to Whisky Bay and Fairy Cove. You can book a free all-terrain wheelchair, TrailRider or beach wheelchair to explore the great outdoors at Wilsons Promontory National Park.

Go crabbing in the town of Lakes Entrance
🌟 Highlights:
The meaning of Lakes Entrance is the entrance to the lake area. It is the mouth of the sea where several lakes in Victoria, Australia, converge into the ocean, hence the name Lakes Entrance.
This is a small town dominated by the fishing industry, and most people who come here do so for sea fishing or crabbing. Some visitors bring their own yachts, but you can also rent a boat at the dock for 60 dollars an hour. The boat renters will teach you how to operate the boat, and then you can sail out to sea on your own
Once you reach the designated spot, you can catch a lot of fish and big crabs. Those who are brave rent a boat to go out to sea, while those who are timid prefer to fish and cast nets for crabs on the pier, but the crabs caught are not very big
Visiting here is a lot of fun, and on weekends, there is a big market along the main street by the sea where you can buy things you like and enjoy lots of delicious food until you're full
📝 Tips:
1. A permit is required for fishing and crabbing here, which can be purchased at the post office. You should buy a big net and tongs in advance for crabbing, and there are many shops on the main street to choose from.
2. Book your accommodation in advance, and definitely avoid coming on holidays, otherwise, it will be overcrowded and there will be no parking spaces available.
📍 Detailed address:
Lakes Entrance, Victoria, which can be found on navigation systems.

Geelong is located 76 kilometers southwest of Melbourne and is the entrance to the famous Great Ocean Road. It is also the largest wool distribution center and wool textile industry in the country, and a gathering place for meat processing industry. The top-quality wool produced in Geelong is popular both locally and abroad. At the same time, the beautiful coastline and artistic painted dolls attract a large number of tourists.

The first stop in Geelong must be the "Australian National Wool Museum". It is located in the center of Geelong. The museum details the history of Australian wool spinning and the impact of the wool spinning industry on the entire national economy. There are many exhibits in the museum, some of which even allow you to touch them by hand to feel the quality difference of different types of wool.

The picturesque seaside city, the uniquely shaped painted dolls, the unique local food (it is recommended to stay more in the center of Geelong, there are many local western restaurants on the beach street, very delicious can taste), and the romantic Ferris wheel on the beach. Geelong is definitely your perfect holiday choice.

In the worst weather in Melbourne since the winter of this year, although the Twelve Apostles The Twelve Apostles is not the most beautiful sunset, the helicopter is another kind of visually looking at the South Pacific coast. I dont know what to do~
Even though I have been to many famous scenic spots in the world, I still have countless expectations for The Twelve Apostles. This is the 12 sandstones that stand out on the South Pacific Ocean and is a famous landmark on Australia's Great Ocean Road. It is said that it was first carved into a rock that resembles a human face by 13 natural creatures. After thousands of years of surf and sea breeze, only seven pieces remain, and one day will disappear. The moment you see, or history. ~

The scenery on the Great Ocean Road, the most spectacular is the twelve disciples, but now there are only seven and a half left, maybe some days will fall, so I still have to look at []

The romantic travel of the grass-rooted wife, the highest building in Melbourne is actually not so good! ~
Melbourne has a very famous building called Eureka Tower, which is said to be the tallest residential building in the world so far. At the top of the building, its 88-story circular floor-to-ceiling glass view The station allows you to see the whole of Melbourne. You can also see the landmarks of Melbourne through the telescope. As for where each building is, you have to find it yourself~
Charge:
There is a charge for going up to the Eureka Tower, and you need tickets. At the landscape level, there is an additional viewing platform that requires extra charges.
Recommended viewing time:
It is recommended to come here in the evening, you can enjoy the tranquility of the old Melbourne during the day, and you can see the night belongs to the modern city of the city.
The entire viewing platform is divided into two layers, one of which is composed of panoramic glass, and one layer is an open-air viewing platform composed of wire mesh. If you can withstand the magic of Melbourne night, I still recommend taking pictures on the barbed wire. It is better because the glass layer looks good and there is no wind, but it is reflective. If the camera technology is not good, it is black history. It is.
An additional viewing platform that requires additional charges. When you look at "Women's Romantic Travel," it feels very fun, but don't go on, who is a fool, a bunch of people crowded in In a space, very boring! Unless you can give up.
There is also a dessert shop. Sakamoto thinks about the 88-story landscape plus desserts and enjoys a pleasant life, but the dessert here needs to be booked 1 week in advance! ! I know, eating something is still so troublesome~~

There are many attractions worth seeing on the Great Ocean Road. The most famous is the Twelve Apostles. In addition, the special geological wonders of the Lockerdale Grand Canyon and the London Broken Bridge are also worthy of a special stopover.
Self-driving Great Ocean Road, all the way through many beautiful towns, such as the tranquil Geelong, such as the adventure paradise Torquay, such as the resort Long En, and the romantic Apollo town, maybe many people will be in Apo In the town of Luoyang, the end of the Great Ocean Road, Warrnambool also has beautiful scenery. When you are driving, you can arrange your own accommodation on the Great Ocean Road according to your own time. It is strongly recommended to live in a small town along the Great Ocean Road. In the evening, the feeling of the sun shining on the grassland in the morning sun is very moving.

At the Port Campbell National Park in Victoria, Australia, the twelve disciple rocks on the beach are the most eye-catching, but most of the tour groups will only stand on the shore and take a glance at the close. Due to the erosion of sea water, there are currently only eight of the twelve disciples. The locals used to call them "sows and piglets." If there are only two left in the future, it will really be a word.

The shipwreck horn can be seen a short distance from the twelve disciples. Because in 1878 a British immigrant ship named Loch Ard was named after the sinking of the reef. There are steep terrains and spectacular scenery, where you can experience the wonders of nature.
