Ipod friendly guides | Email to a friend | Print article

Melbourne has two pieces of sacred ground, the Shrine of Remembrance and the Melbourne Cricket Ground, known universally as the MCG.
In a city that treats sport as a religion, this vast colosseum is the high altar at which the faithful worship. After undergoing extensive refurbishment to host the 2006 Commonwealth Games, the stadium is amongst the best on the planet.
If you are lucky enough to watch AFL finals footy or get a ticket to the Boxing Day Test match, you’ll get to hear 80,000+ Melburnians in full voice. If not, you can always take the MCG tour during which you’ll get to see behind the scenes and walk upon the hallowed turf.
