Birrarung Marr is a new park on the banks of the Yarra, “Melbourne's
first new park in 100 years.” Opened officially on Australia day
2002. Nobody seems to know about it yet, maybe next summer when
Federation Square is open people will come through there and down to
the river.
After months of talking about it, one
Saturday, Jo and I walked along the river
from Richmond and explored what there was to see. Most striking is
the Federation Bells, but they're only played at 8am and 5pm, so we
couldn't hear what they sound like.
One final look at the city skyline from the park.
