Australia For Visitors > Gulgong
Gulgong was a small town that grew rapidly during the Australian goldrushes of the 1850s.
After the goldrushes finished, most of the population left the town, and many of the original buildings were left standing, never re-developed and may still be seen in the streets of Gulgong today.
Here are some pictures of Gulgong and its fascinating old buildings:
Mayne Street, Gulgong.
(Many of these buildings are over 130 years old.)
Prince of Wales Opera House, Gulgong
