Timeline
19:58
Grab a pint at The London. It is a large tavern with plenty of space to sit. Note that it can get very crowded before and after big sporting events, so arriving early helps you find a seat.
20:28
Walk to the Melbourne Tram Museum. The building features classic American Romanesque architecture and houses 21 restored trams. Arrive just before sunset to see the golden light hitting the historic depot.
20:43
Watch the sun set toward the WSW. The low angle of the light reflects off the restored metal and glass of the W-class trams, creating a striking contrast against the darkening sky.
21:13
End the evening at 9T4. This small bar is a short walk away and has heaps of atmosphere, perfect for winding down after the visit.
Local tip
