Melbourne Cricket Ground

Posted 1 year ago by avatar cristina in response to avatar cynohn's question: How's the cricket ground from Melbourne? is it worth a tour? (give a different answer) .

Well, it depends on how keen are you on this kind of sport. Because if you are, you'll sure be impressed by the Melbourne Cricket Ground (on Bronton Ave)... it's actually one of the world's great sporting venues, visited with about 60,000 other spectators during a footy match. I heard the first game was played here in 1858.
The first test cricket match between Australia and England was also played here in 1877 and it was the main stadium for the 1956 Olympic Games. At least for this brief history, is worth a visit...
