St Kilda is the perfect place to head for when you need to get away from Melbourne and breathe in that ozone. You can relax in one of the cafes or historic pubs Cheap Nampalys Mendy Jersey , have a great meal, build sandcastles, and swim or surf in the waters of Port Phillips Bay. But what makes St Kilda special is that it's an authentic seaside resort with esplanade Cheap Matty James Jersey , fun fair, and pier, just the place to enjoy the grand old style holiday experience.

What would a beachside resort be like without an esplanade to stroll along and take in the evening air? St Kilda's grand esplanade forms one of the suburb's most enticing thoroughfares along with Acland Street.

It's home to the famed Esplanade Hotel known as The Espy to insiders. The Espy offers the best views in the whole area Cheap Marcin Wasilewski Jersey , especially from the upper floors. There are also pool tables, a restaurant, and rooms offering musical performances such as the Gershwin Room. The Espy tends to get packed out on weekends when popular bands are playing.

The Esplanade is also home to the St Kilda Esplanade Arts & Crafts Market. Held every Sunday Cheap Marc Albrighton Jersey , the market features around 150 stalls hawking a variety of original art and handcrafts.

As for fun fairs, St Kilda is home to the daddy of them all, Luna Park with its renowned gaping mouth entrance. Located on the Lower Esplanade just a stroll from the beach Cheap Luis Hernandez Jersey , Luan Park features a historic roller coaster, the Scenic Railway, which is the world's oldest continually running roller coaster. Ride this roller coaster and enjoy amazing views over the bay.

The park opened in 1912 and has undergone many a facelift Cheap Leonardo Ulloa Jersey , the most recent in 2001. Now it offers a total of 16 attractions including G Force, Shock Drop and Pharaoh's Curse. One of the most popular rides is the Carousel, originally constructed in 1913 for an amusement park in Sydney. It was moved to Luna Park in 1918.

Another essential component of an authentic seaside resort is a pier. St Kilda Pier is a local landmark that also features grand views of the bay and the Melbourne skyline. It?s the setting for a range of fun activities such as strolling Cheap Kasper Schmeichel Jersey , cycling, roller blading and fishing. It's also the place to get a ferry to Williamstown.

Finally we?ll look at the pier, without which no seaside resort would be complete. A pier was originally built in 1859 here after a storm destroyed the Fitzroy Street jetty Cheap Jeff Schlupp Jersey , and the kiosk was completed in 1904. In 1970 the pier was torn down and replaced with reinforced concrete.

Then in 2003 the kiosk was burned down. It was restored over the following years from original plans with a new caf? at the back with a public viewing deck on top. Interactive panels along the pier's length outline the pier's history. The kiosk is open daily from 8 am until dark and the restaurant from noon until 11pm.

St Kilda makes a great place to base yourself during your Melbourne holiday. You'll find plenty of great St Kilda hotels including the Cosmopolitan Boutique Hotel Melbourne and the Easystay @ The Bayside Motel Melbourne.



LONDON， Oct. 19 (Xinhua) -- Britain's Chancellor of the Exchequer Philip Hammond confirmed Wednesday that the Bank of England's Monetary Policy Committee will retain its independence.


His assurance during a meeting of the House of Commons Treasury Committee that the monetary committee will remain responsible for monetary policy had an immediate impact on the City of London and sterling.


British currency has recorded one of its best performances against the Euro and U.S. Dollar since July， with the pound trading at over 1.23 U.S. dollars during Wednesday， and the FTSE closing at over 7，000.


Questioned at the Treasury Committee by politicians， Hammond said : "There will be no change in monetary policy. Monetary policy is independently determined， that will continue to be the case."


The Bank of England's Monetary Policy Committee sets Britain's base interest rate， currently set at 0.25 percent.


MPs on the select committee also questioned the chancellor about the impact of Brexit on the British economy.


Hammond agreed that uncertainty is the big challenge in the next phase of the Brexit process， adding: "It's a challenge to our economy - there will be a period inevitably of uncertainty until we know the outcome of the negotiations."


Concern has been expressed about the possible impact of Brexit on the City of London and the financial sector in Britain.


Hammond said: "The reality is that financial services remains our single largest sector; it is responsible for a very large number of jobs straight across the United Kingdom， it's not London-based industry."


Earlier in the day data from the Office for National Statistics showed Britain's unemployment rate in the months after the June 23 EU referendum vote remained unchanged at 4.9 percent. ONS also revealed that almost 32 million people in Britain were currently in work， half a million more than a year earlier.


Meanwhile Prime Minister Theresa May's Conservative government Wednesday saws its lead over the main opposition Labor party grow to 18 points， its highest level since October 2009.


The Ipsos Mori poll shows the gap is the biggest advantage recorded for the Conservatives while in power since 1987， shortly after the then Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher's landslide victory.


The poll shows that if the current Conservative lead of 47 against Labor's 29， was repeated in a general election， it would deliver a majority of over 100 for Theresa May.


Gideon Skinner， head of Political Research at Ipsos Mori， said: "Labor so far is not taking advantage， as the Conservatives' honeymoon continues - for the moment at least."


Labor had hoped that Jeremy Corbyn's re-election as leader， coupled with the appointment of a full shadow cabinet after the recent fall-out with his MP.
