Situated behind the Royal Exhibition Buildings, Australia’s largest museum contains some excellent exhibits with a good selection on local and natural history. The museum contains a lot of new exhibits and is divided along different themes with Australian history, Aboriginal and Pacific Island culture, science and natural history. Highlights include Australia’s first – and the world’s fourth – computer (with a massive 2KB RAM) plus a set from the TV show Neighbours. The complex also houses an IMAX theatre.
