🏛️ Albury: A Landscape Architect’s Dream Destination

As a landscape designer, I’m awestruck by how this historic border town preserves its heritage—a rare feat requiring community-wide dedication. Forget big cities—Albury (a former capital contender!) masters the art of timeless urban charm. 🚶 Heritage Walking Tour 📍 Albury CBD Historic Buildings Walk (Google it!) 40-min stroll through 1800s architecture—best at 5PM (empty streets + golden light). Pro tip: Skip shopping, hit pubs + wander like a local. 🌳 Botanic Gardens Victorian-era grandeur: Century-old Norfolk pines & elms frame this perfect town square. 🍜 Quirky Bites 🥢 Din Dins ("Australian Chinese") Mind-bending fusion: Crispy tofu bao + salt-pepper squid bao—weirdly delicious?! Verdict: If you crave a one-day time warp (3hrs from Melbourne), bring the family (dog included!) to walk these living-history streets. #AlburyUnlocked #HiddenHistory #MelbourneWeekends #NSWTravel #LandscapeLovers 🌿
