Victorians have been invited to leave flowers and other items paying tribute to Queen Elizabeth II outside Government House in Melbourne.

Governor of Victoria, Linda Dessau, says flowers can be placed at the gates and there will also be a condolences book.

“People can sign it and express their personal messages, too, which will all be forwarded on to the Palace,” she told Neil Mitchell.

From Monday, an exhibition honouring Her Majesty’s life will also open inside Government House, with members of the public able to attend.
