CNY at Crown Casino



On the boardwalk outside Crown Casino (casino, dining options, entertainment outlets, high-end accommodation, you name it...) in Melbourne during Chinese New Year, traders ply their wares. It was heaving when we were there, and the smell of yummy-greasy foodstuff permeated the air. The glowing lanterns against the deep blue sky made for very pretty pictures.

"On special occasions, chimney stacks lined along the boardwalk shoot bursts of flames into the air, giving the casino an awesome appearance somewhat like the cityscape featured in the film Bladerunner." - http://www.melbourne.com.au/crown.htm
