Queen Victoria Market is the largest open-air market in the Southern Hemisphere, operating since 1878 on the site of Melbourne's old cemetery. Spanning seven hectares with over 600 traders, it offers fresh produce, meats, seafood, gourmet foods, clothing, and souvenirs. In summer, Wednesday evenings transform into a vibrant night market with food stalls and live music.
