St Kilda is a vibrant beachside suburb in Melbourne. In the 19th century, it was known for being an elite vacation destination. In the mid-20th century, the suburb became a thriving entertainment district. The vibrant arts scene and diverse culture are now what St Kilda is mainly known for. You will find Victorian Pride Centre, a purpose-built center for the country’s LGBTQ+ community, here. Moreover, plenty of green spaces offer a breath of fresh air amid the bustle - O’Donnell Gardens is an excellent example.
