Golden Dragon Museum And Yi Yuan Gardens

Bendigo has a big Chinese population and a proud cultural history related to them. The Chinese came en masse to Bendigo during the gold rush in the 1850s, stayed and raised families. The museum and garden celebrates their history.

An elaborate pagoda in the beautiful garden.


Another look at the architecture and flora in the garden. A typical home tea service.

A wax figure of Dr Sun Yat-sen.


The wax hand of Dr Sun Yat-sen. A little creepy. Chinese laborer.

The main hall features an elaborate, almost endless parade dragon.
