Meeting in Melbourne or other big cities can be a problem: Where should we meet in the city? How many times have you discussed doing something in a city and had to ask the group where you should meet. This can be pretty difficult in large cities, but in Melbourne there is only one traditional meeting place – under the clocks at Flinders Street Station.
At the front of this grand old station, up the main stairway there are a series of old clocks mounted above the entryway. If you are going to meet someone in Melbourne then this is the place. Easy walking to all parts of the city, easy to find, taxi ranks, bus stop and train station all meet here and it is a specific and relatively small area to scan for your friends and, because of the step, you can wait in a position above the crowds to see more easily.
The only down side is that the area can get pretty busy during rush hour.
Flinders Street Station and the clocks and main entryway are on the corner of Flinders and Swanston Streets in the City of Melbourne.
