“There’s a sunrise and a sunset every single day, and they’re absolutely free. Don’t miss so many of them.” – Jo Walton

Just 4 km away from the Melbourne CBD, you will find the Abbotsford Convent. This is a 16 acre historic building with amazing sprawling gardens. It is home to studios, galleries, cafes and it sponsors art projects, exhibitions, events, weddings, festivals and markets

I am sharing my day at the convent for Norm’s Thursday Doors Challenge Convent Doors and and for Xingfumama’s Pull Up a Seat Challenge – Convent Benches.

Some doors and benches on the grounds of the convent.

In the main dining room, in the cafe and the market.
