Known as the ceramic centre of Victoria - now a major regional city - displays an opulent heritage, and is considered one of the most impressive examples of 19th century 'boom town' architecture in the country. The area is home to many wineries and their exceptional and diverse wines guaranteed to satisfy any palate.
The gleaming-white Alexandra Fountain, magnificent cathedral and the ornate Shamrock Hotel as well as numerous shops, hotels, churches and ostentatious mansions are evidence of huge wealth generated by mines deep under the city.
Bendigo has many unique sights to see such as The Dragon Gardens and Museum, which features the worlds oldest & longest Chinese dragon 'Sun loong' and the Dja Dja Aboriginal Association Museum which displays local Aboriginal heritage. Other attractions are the Central Deborah Mine, where you can take a high speed ride to the bottom of the main shaft, and the "Talking Tram", which takes you on an hour journey of Bendigo's history.
Getting to Bendigo is easy, it's just under 2 hours drive from Melbourne on the Calder Highway. V/Line trains operate daily services to Bendigo.Photos
