Heathmont Ladies Probus Club Outing
05 Sep 2017
Heathmont Ladies Probus Club enjoyed a tour of the Chinese Museum in Little Bourke Street, Melbourne.
There are several levels of a variety of exhibitons, including the Chinese Dragon, which comes out every Moomba day in Melbourne streets, carried by 30+ men. Bright colourful displays were all made very interesting by our tour guide explaining the customs such as the tiny shoes which the young females had to squash their feet into. After a walk through Little Bourke, Chinatown, we enjoyed Yum Cha at a nearby restaurant.
