The Royal Arcade is an historic shopping arcade in the central business district (CBD) of Melbourne. Opened in 1870, it is the oldest surviving arcade in Australia, known for its elegant light-filled interior, and the large carved mythic figures of Gog and Magig flanking the southern entry.
Along with Melbourne's other historic arcade, the Block Arcade, it is a tourist icon of Melbourne, and part of the network of lanes and arcades in the central shopping area of the city.

At the entrance to the Royal Arcade from Little Collins Street, look up. There, next to a clock that is over 100 years old, the mythical giants Gog and Magog watch over the shopping centre. Try to be there on the hour, when they ring their bells.
