Since the goldfields in the 1850’s to the present day, Chinese heritage has been an integral part of Bendigo’s history.

Opened in 1991, the Golden Dragon Museum aims to collect, preserve and care for materials of historical significance to the Chinese community, particularly items relevant to the goldfields region of Victoria.

Unique to the museum’s collection and on permanent display are Loong and Sun Loong, the world’s oldest and longest imperial dragon, along with their accompanying processional regalia. This living collection is used annually in the Bendigo Easter Procession.

Situated beside the Golden Dragon Museum, and designed to resemble the gardens in Beijing’s famed Imperial Palace, are the serene and intimate settings of the Classical Chinese Garden.
