Melbourne's side streets are the heart of the city and worth an afternoon exploring by foot. While many are lined with cafes and crowded with locals looking for a good meal, others, such as Hosier Lane and Cocker Alley, are a haven for graffiti artists. These are my favorite; the brick walls a canvas for painted works, stenciling, and papering, and pay tribute to graffiti as an essential and innovative art form.
