Hosier Lane in downtown Melbourne is always full of tourists. If you search online for street art in Melbourne, you will certainly find Hosier Lane. Like a lot of popular graffiti places, there is some good street art and there is some junk. I have been to Hosier Lane a few times now and what is interesting is how frequently things change in the alley. New paintings, or new little things are always popping up.
