Top 10 Kid Friendly Things To Do and Attractions in Portsea

"Built in 1988, Australia's national parliament building is a graceful and deeply symbolic piece of architecture. Sitting atop Capital Hill, the building is crossed by two axis, north–south and east–west, representing the historical progression and legislative progression of Australian democracy. There's plenty to see inside, whether the politicians are haranguing each other in the chambers or not."

"Royal Botanic Gardens –you can’t beat the serenity and harbour views from these gardens. Have a picnic or take a walk and admire the many different types of plants and city views on a free self-guided walking tour."

"Much like the fairy tale Alice in Wonderland itself, White Rabbit is a hidden gem that transports you into a world of quirky, plush surfaces and theatrical treats. Indulge in whimsical cocktails designed by the maddest of hatters, decadent desserts that aren’t just a feast for the eyes, but a party for your tastebuds and fall down the ‘rabbit hole’. So, whether you’re in the mood for a boozy night, a dessert or tapas to share, step into the whimsical world of White Rabbit Room."

"It’s one of those rare places that’s as comfortable for breakfast as it is for midnight cocktails, and you never EVER think you’re sitting in a hotel foyer. There are nooks to hide away in, a fire to warm yourself next to, and the elegant salon right next door, should you decide to head in for something more substantial. The great thing about Monster isn’t Sean McConnell’s inventive cuisine (although it’s amazing), or the carefully crafted cocktails and interesting wine list; it’s that this is a place that transcends generations."

"Vegetarians will understand the disappointment when dining out and having limited options to choose from. However, Monster Kitchen and Bar is entirely vegetarian – and extremely delicious at that. In fact, we promise you’ll impress your meat eating friends here with a whole head cauliflower – that actually hits the spot."
