I rode the vintage tram around Bendigo with my sister. It starts from the Central Deborah Gold Mine and returns 45 minutes later. Passengers can hop-on and hop-off at any of the stops.
There are hundreds of well-kept historic statues and buildings in Bendigo, many of which we could see from the tram.
We did a quick tour of the old gold mine, which was included in our ticket price.
For dinner, we had Bunja Thai in the centre of town. The food was lovely, and the building was fascinating but incongruent as a venue for a Thai restaurant. It was originally built for the Colonial Bank, then occupied by the National Bank of Australasia, and later used as a gallery and cafe.
The toilets were up a cedar return staircase with threadbare carpet and low hand rail – no wheelchair access.
