Personal highlights

  1. V & A: named after Victoria and Alfred, her son
  2. Waterfront: nice area, inviting to hang out a full day
  3. Harbour: nothing spectacular, as it is not heavily in use
  4. Tourists: packed in narrow alleys and a large mall
  5. Foodlovers: plenty of restaurants and a food market
