Rue de la chapelle
Vibrante, animée et bordée de boutiques, Chapel Street est une aventure urbaine incontournable à Melbourne. Cette longue rue intérieure de Melbourne est parfaite pour une journée complète de shopping, de café et de bar, de regarder les gens et de prendre les tramways classiques de Melbourne qui fréquentent la rue.
Les plus anciens marchés alimentaires de Melbourne, les marchés de Prahran, sont un favori local et se trouvent juste à côté de Chapel Street. Là, vous pouvez parcourir les saveurs multiculturelles et acheter du pain frais, des produits, des fruits de mer et de la viande, ainsi que des collations de rue comme des pâtisseries turques au fromage et des falafels.
Si la mode est votre faiblesse, offrez-vous la qualité colorée de Gorman, les vêtements de rue chez Fat, les designs minimalistes de Cylk, le denim de spécialité de Dakota 501 et le style scandinave de Dansk, ainsi que les articles des nombreuses autres Chapel Street boutiques.
The basics
Chapel Street is best explored on foot and you could easily spend an entire morning or afternoon strolling around the precinct. Start at the South Yarra end, where you’ll find plenty of designer shops, chic hotels, and cocktail bars, plus the Palace Cinema and the Jam Factory Entertainment complex. Further south, the Prahran and Windsor districts offer a more laid-back vibe; with highlights including Prahran Market, the Chapel Off Chapel theater, and the Chapel Street Bazaar.

Exploring Melbourne’s Neighborhoods
Discovering Melbourne like a local means exploring the city’s diverse neighborhoods. After browsing the luxury boutiques of South Yarra and partying at the hip bars of Windsor, head to laid-back St Kilda to catch some rays on the beach and visit the lively Sunday market. Closer to downtown, Southbank is Melbourne’s arts district, full of museums, performing arts venues, and restaurants; the redeveloped Docklands has harborside shopping malls, gleaming skyscrapers, and the Melbourne Star; while bohemian Fitzroy is crammed with budget eateries, tapas bars, and independent art galleries.
