The oldest building in Australia and a popular tourist attraction.
"Situated in the beautiful heritage-listed Fitzroy Gardens, is Melbourne Cooks' Cottage making it the oldest building in Australia and a popular tourist attraction. It is an easy walking distance from the city centre. For generations, children have been brought to the gardens to see Captain Cook’s Cottage. The quaint house was lovingly disassembled in England and rebuilt in Melbourne many years ago. It is in a delightful setting and still delights visitors as they stoop under the mantles to gaze into the tiny rooms of a bygone era.
