Melbourne is the second-largest city in Australia, with a metropolitan area population of approximately 3.7 million (2006 estimate). Located around Port Philip Bay in the country's south-east, Melbourne is the state capital of Victoria.
Melbourne's Chinatown, established in 1854, is not only the oldest in Australia but one of the oldest in the world.
Melbourne is a major centre of commerce, industry and cultural activity. The city is often referred to as Australia's "sporting and cultural capital"[1] and it is home to many of the nations's most significant cultural and sporting events and institutions. Melbourne is notable for its Victorian architecture, its extensive tram network and Victorian parks and gardens. It was the host city of the 1956 Summer Olympics and the 2006 Commonwealth Games.
Melbourne has six sister cities. They are: 
Osaka, Japan, 1978
Tianjin, China, 1980
Thessaloniki, Greece, 1984
