MELBOURNE is home to plenty of spectacular sights, with many of us only managing to catch a glimpse from the ground.

Those with a fear of heights may want to look away as the Herald Sun’s Jake Nowakowski took to the skies to showcase the world’s most liveable city from a bird’s eye view.

Enlisting the help of a helicopter, Jake flew hundreds of metres high to show a different side to Melbourne.

The unique shots add perspective to some of the city’s most photographed areas such as Luna Park and Princes Bridge.

Breathtaking pictures highlight some of the different parts that make up Victoria’s capital from seaside St Kilda to the concrete jungle of Melbourne’s CBD.
