Bendigo

Bendigo is a regional city in Victoria, Australia, known for its gold rush history, Victorian-era architecture, and strong Chinese heritage. Established during the 1850s gold rush, it became one of the richest goldfields in the world, attracting thousands of miners and immigrants. The city's historical significance is preserved through sites like the Central Deborah Gold Mine and the Golden Dragon Museum, which highlights Bendigo’s long-standing connection to the Chinese community.

Today, Bendigo is a hub for arts, culture, and heritage tourism. Key attractions include the Bendigo Art Gallery, historic buildings, regional festivals, and surrounding wineries and bushland. The city offers a blend of history, contemporary creativity, and local food and wine, making it a popular destination for both cultural and nature-based experiences.
