The best city in the world This year Sydney, Australia was voted the best city in the world. As an Australian, I feel very happy about that but my blog isn’t about Sydney. I’m Francesca Williams, from the city of Melbourne, where I’ve lived all my life. I’d like to tell you why I think my home city is better than Sydney. I’m an actress and I’m working in Melbourne at the moment but I often work in Sydney because they make a lot of TV programmes there so I know the city well. People say the best thing about Sydney is Bondi beach. I went there in January and it was sunny but windy. The beach was busy and it was noisy because there were so many people. My city is on the south coast and there are wonderful, quiet beaches without many tourists. Melbourne is also famous for old, interesting buildings, such as the Chinese museum, and there are exciting street markets you can visit. There’s a very modern Arts Centre too but of course, the Opera House in Sydney is the most famous concert hall in Australia. Melbourne has a very good public transport system with buses, trains and trams. If you want to use your car, the roads here are straight and you can drive easily and safely. In Sydney you get lost in ten minutes because there are a lot of roads you can’t drive down! Finally, there are many different nationalities who live in Melbourne so there’s an enormous variety of foreign food to enjoy. My favourite food is Italian but you can eat all kinds of European and Asian food. Tomorrow night I’m going to try a new Mexican restaurant which has opened recently. Read my next blog for my food review! Example: Sydney is bigger than Melbourne. A True C Doesn’t say  1 Francesca was born in Melbourne. 2 She prefers Sydney. 3 There were a lot of people on Bondi beach when Francesca visited. 4 Melbourne is in the north of Australia. 5 Melbourne Arts Centre is more famous than the Sydney Opera House. 6 The Chinese Museum is an old building. 7 You can visit a street market in Melbourne.
