Golden Dragon Museum (Bendigo)The Golden Dragon Museum celebrates the Chinese migration which occurred during the gold rush era.
The museum houses the world’s oldest Imperial Chinese dragon which was given to the miners of Bendigo by the Chinese emperor. It was the only one to survive the destruction of Imperial artefacts in the Chinese Cultural Revolution.
The Loong dragon is so precious that it is no longer taken out of the museum for the traditional Easter parade, but his younger friend, Sun Loong, regularly participates.
Getting thereThe Golden Dragon Museum is located on 5-11 Bridge Street, Bendigo.
Bendigo is approximately two hours by train from Melbourne’s Southern Cross Station.
From Bendigo Station, walk 10-15 minutes to Alexandra Fountain on Pall Mall, then walk along Pall Mall, veering left onto Bridge Street. Check Google maps for walking directions.
