The staff inside are also dressed in 19th-century costumes, making visitors feel as if they have stepped back in time to the gold rush era. In the fifties of the eighteenth century, due to the first discovery of gold mines in Shufen Mountain, it suddenly became lively, and a large number www.biquge.info of gold diggers from Europe, America and Asia poured in.

Among them are more than 40,000 Chinese laborers from coastal areas such as Yunluoguo and Fujian, who call Shufen Mountain the "New Golden Mountain".

Shufen Hill represents the early state of the Ballarat gold mine, condensing the first take-off of the Australian economy due to the great development of animal husbandry 150 years ago, and the "gold rush" of the Shufen Mountain mine 20 years later accelerated the second economic take-off of Australia's all-round development. It can be said that the Shufen Hill gold mine is the most powerful witness to the economic rise of the country as a country.

Arrived at Shufen Mountain relatively early, and it has not yet opened, so I will go to the gold museum opposite first (g sent down the time, in addition to the pictures and texts that display the gold rush at that time ~ no ~ wrong ~ small ~ said ~~~.

There are also some samples of sand gold, gold coins, and gold mines, which can give you a more intuitive understanding of the enthusiasm of local gold panning 150 years ago. The museum's treasure is the Goodfortune, which is said to be worth $250,000. It's still very watchable

There are souvenirs sold on the periphery, most of the salespeople are Chinese, and foreigners can also speak fluent Chinese. Later, I learned that the owner of this museum is Chinese, so this is not surprising. Souvenirs are not cheap, and I am not familiar with the market, so I took a general look and did not buy them. If you want to buy it, please bring enough money.

After watching the film, I officially entered the town. The first thing that catches your eye is an 18th-century image, with the appearance of a gold mine, old-fashioned machinery, the streets of yesteryear, the old costumes of the employees and live performances. made An Qingju and Yunluo feel like they have returned to the golden age of Australia 150 years ago.

If the town's above-ground facilities allow visitors to experience the lifestyle of the people at that time, then the following "gold mine tour" will give you a thorough understanding of the working conditions of the miners at that time. It should be noted that due to the need to control the number of people under the mine, and the complex road below, like a maze, individuals are not allowed to go down to visit.

Friends who want to go down still need to find a good guide. Under his/her leadership, you can only go down the mine, and there is a time limit for going down, about 1 hour, so this should be taken into account when entering the town to buy a ticket, so as not to miss this great experience.

The minecart going down the mine has a very good feeling, especially in the process of going down to the mine, the kind of fingers that can't be seen, only the mechanical sound of the minecart and the cold swishing wind passing by, the thrilling feeling of screaming one after another. Ha ha. After about 10 seconds, the car stopped, and the light was seen again, but the light under the mine was weak, so the faint of heart should be careful.

The mine is not dark, and there are many forks in the road. So be sure to follow the guide, otherwise you will get lost, and it is estimated that according to the situation at the time (there are echoes when you walk), you can scare yourself. If the lamp breaks down again...... It shouldn't take 5 minutes to scare the hell out of you. So if you go. Let's line up hand in hand, haha.

If you think this is the minecart and the mine road at that time. That would be a big mistake. These things are now made for the convenience of today's tourists.

In the past, the minecart was actually a duck cage, and an adult man had to crouch down and curl up in it if he wanted to enter, and it was not uncommon for him to go up and down about a dozen times a day. The mine tunnel was not as wide as it is now, but needed to crouch and stagger forward. So it's really panning for gold with your life.

It is worth recommending a short projection film in the mine. It tells the story of the two Chen brothers who left their hometown to come to Shufen Mountain in Australia to pan for gold, from the soundtrack to the editing to the sublimation of the story content, it is a good short film, after watching the movie, I can't help but feel chilled by the sad fate of the miners at that time.

I still remember the last narration "Cherish what you have now", Yunluo thinks that An Qingju and Yunluo are happy. Because he benefited from the wealth that his ancestors exchanged for their lives.

The reason why I came to the gold mine is naturally "gold panning". Although everyone knows that it is very difficult, it is still good to experience the gold rush 150 years ago. An Qingju was naturally full of interest, and it was incumbent on him to join the gold rush army.

With a strong RP, it ends with a small gold sand :) If you want to keep a souvenir, you can go to the gold museum where you started and buy a bottle of gold sand. It's small, but it's about participation.

Leaving the gold mine, An Qingju and Yunluo immediately moved towards the next goal. It's a long way to go, hey.

The weather in Moshi is like a child's face, rain and sunshine, and occasionally hail, what a naughty and disobedient child! I don't know how many times I was unconscious, but I finally arrived at the legendary "Great Ocean Road", the road surface is very narrow and not very flat, which is really a test of driving skills.

Fortunately, An Qingju and Yunluo's drivers are good. It is said that the road has now been renovated and used to be even more terrifying. It's normal to have accidents. As a well-known scenic spot, the only way to go can actually rot like that, it seems that socialism is good~

It is said that the cows here will come home spontaneously at a certain point every day, and due to the large number of cows, there will be a spectacular scene that stretches for hundreds of meters. It's a pity that when I came back, I didn't have time to take that spectacular picture.

After n hours of trekking, An Qingju and Yunluo finally came to the Twelve Disciples.

It may be the relationship between the sea, the sea breeze is very strong, although the sun is abundant, but when you really get to the beach, there is still a hint of coolness. Friends who are going to go suggest that the package is tight, and the gain outweighs the loss if you catch a cold.

Everyone also knows that the so-called twelve disciples are actually twelve large stones, and with the invasion of the sea, there are only 9 at present, so if you want to see children's shoes, please hurry up. Personally, I don't think the stones are much to see, but the sea is quite beautiful, unlike the sea seen in Sydney.

The sea here is imposing. According to experienced people, it is actually very ordinary to look at it from below, but if you look at it from above by helicopter, the effect will be very different. An Qingju and Yunluo came to the helicopter landing gate with great interest, and suddenly found that people were gathered there, according to their current operation mode.

I had to wait at least 2 hours, so I had to give up. It is recommended that you book a time in advance for children's shoes that you want to try, which may save you a little time.

Since the ticket from Melbourne to the Gold Coast is more than 7 o'clock in the morning, think about getting up at 4 o'clock in the morning to depart from the hotel, I am afraid that I can't find taxi, so I still booked the airport drop-off service of the travel agency. At that time, I asked Yunluo for about 120 Australian dollars, and Yunluo also said that Australia's travel agency was black.

At 4 o'clock in the morning, it was still dawn, and An Qingju and Yunluo were waiting at the door of the hotel. Since breakfast started, the hotel gave An Qingju and Yunluo a subway-like sandwich and a piece of fruit, and originally wanted to eat something to fill their stomachs first, but they had to throw it away after asking for a bite: ice! Hey, who told people to have a good stomach and no habit of eating hot food, so they had to think they were unlucky.

After a while, the car that picked up An Qingju and Yunluo arrived, and the driver happened to be a guy from Sihai City, who had been in Melbourne for more than 4 years.

Maybe it's because of the relationship between the fellow countrymen, the young man chatted with Yunluo, he wanted to find a job in Sydney to settle down after studying in Sydney, but unfortunately it backfired, and he couldn't find his ideal job, and the cost of Sydney is too big (the group rent over there is also nearly 80~100 yuan a week), and he can't find a job in a city that is too small.

Therefore, I can only temporarily stabilize in Melbourne, as a native of Sihai City, like Yunluo, I obviously do not adapt to the climate of Melbourne, but under the consideration of survival, I can only work hard to adapt to it. According to him, although some people have already led a group, they are all overnight bus groups.

(For example, An Qingju and Yunluo flew from Sydney to Melbourne for about 2 hours, and those drivers needed about 12 hours to drive from Sydney to Mexico, and then drive back to Sydney after the tour) Compared to those people, his hard work is nothing. The temperature in Melbourne in the early morning was very low, and I looked at the young and tired face of the young man (5 years younger than Yunluo).

A kind of sigh arises spontaneously, it is not easy to work hard abroad alone!

As he spoke, the speed of about 80 yards had passed, and nearly half an hour had passed. Yunluo asked him suspiciously, why is Melbourne's domestic airport so far away? Sydney is so close. Yunluo was taken aback by his answer: Sydney's airport was built in the city, while Melbourne's airport was in the suburbs.

This time it's really Yunluo She's a small amount of money to save a lot of money, if Yunluo still has inertial thinking and takes a taxi directly to the airport, it is estimated that there will be no 300 yuan to get down (2000rmb is like this, it's terrible, who will tell Yunluo that Sihai City is expensive in the future, and Yunluo is in a hurry!) ）

When he got out of the car, he gave the guy a tip of 20 yuan, hoping that he could find a stable and suitable job as soon as possible.

More than 3 hours later, An Qingju and Yunluo landed at the Gold Coast Airport, as soon as they got off the plane, they couldn't wait to strip themselves naked (the temperature was too high, estimated to be over 30 degrees), Australia is really a magical country, Sydney is like spring, Moshi is like winter, and Gold Coast is like summer (of course, I will know later that Cairns is the real summer).

I believe that in a country, there are different seasons at the same time, and it is estimated that Australia is the only one. As usual, I took the free map of the airport and the introduction of attractions, and got in the car to go to the hotel.

After depositing their luggage, An Qingju and Yunluo came to the first stop of the day: Paradise Farm (patry). (To be continued......)
