Yes, Melbourne has gondolas swaying gracefully on the waters of the Yarra River! These are based on the traditional design of Venetian gondolas but are built in Melbourne and they cruise regularly on the Yarra, steered masterfully by gondoliers. A great way to enjoy a romantic ride down the river and see the sights from the water. More details here.

That is very interesting! And especially the first picture is great! The skyscrapers and the gondola in front.
ReplyDeleteI still have not seen these gondolas on the Yarra. Beautiful lighting in these scenes.
