Located in southern Victoria, about 75 kilometers by car from Melbourne, Victoria's capital, (Melborune), Geelong is Victoria's second-largest city and can be reached directly from Melbourne by train.
Geelong was once an important industrial city, full of chimneys, haze and PM2.5, after decades of transformation, finally restored the beautiful scenery of the blue sea and blue sky. As Melbourne's back garden, Geelong is known for its (Great Ocean Road) on Oceanic Road, the starting point of its self-driving route on Ocean Road, and 95 percent of visitors who travel from Melbourne to Geelong. The perfect location makes every year an uncounted number of visitors passing by, or visiting specially, and Geelong itself is beautiful, as a seaside city, Geelong also has a quiet and dreamy coastline, if there is plenty of time, It's worth a few stops in Geelong.
Geelong's most famous attraction is the waterfront coast of Geelong painted puppet (Geelong Baywalk Bollards), Geelong, which is littered with more than 100 beautiful puppets created by artist Jan Mitchell, each with a special story behind it, requiring travelers to have enough feet and eyes. You're not gonna miss it! Along the coastline, there are probably more than a hundred wood-headed people of all kinds, large and small, with different themes. In fact, these wood-headed men were originally just wooden bolted boats and were later used as canvases by artists. So all kinds of wooden people were born. One is to commemorate a couple during World War II, there are also volunteer infantry bands, the colors are very bright, unique, I believe tourists will come here to take pictures. The National Wool Museum, (National Wool Museum), is also a worthwhile destination for Geelong.
It takes about 50 minutes to take the Melbourne-Geelongation Line (Melbourne-Geelong) directly to Geelong, from (Southern Cross Station), the Southern Cross Star Station in downtown Melbourne.
