Melbourne is the second-largest city in Australia and the capital of the south-eastern state of Victoria, located at the head of Port Phillip Bay. Founded in 1835, Melbourne came about of a land purchase from Tasmania from local Aboriginal tribes. Often referred to as "the cultural capital of Australia", there are more art galleries, orchestras, choral and opera productions per capita in Melbourne than in all Australia.
