Australia's oldest building

#melbournetrip Cooks Cottage is in the picturesque Fitzroy Gardens, walking distance from the centre of Melbourne. The cottage is a modest structure, but it is said to be the oldest intact building in Australia, even though it is from North Yorkshire. This quaint cottage is not a mansion, but most visitors agree that the cottage, with its garden and period furniture, is well worth a visit.

Australians kept Captain Cook's home in Britain intact and moved it to Melbourne! It was James Cook who first discovered and explored the Australian continent. In honor of this explorer, Australian businessmen bought the former residence of Cook in Britain and gifted it to the city of Melbourne.
