Maldon was designated "Australia's first notable town" -- I guess that's because of the many 19th century goldfields towns in this part of Victoria, this is the most authentic.
A short 10min hike from the car park and past the fire tower, brings you to a peaceful sunset vantage point overlooking the surrounds of Heathcote and Lake Eppalock in the distance. What your step as there are lots of small loose boulders. At dawn/dusk there are quite a few Kangaroos and Wallabies jumping out in front of you on the drive in also.
One person dragon from the Bendigo Easter Parade (2013).  One of many traditional chinese dragons on the march in this long parade each Easter Sunday.  It's a reminder of the town's gold-rush past when many chinese migrants worked in local gold mines.

The pool was amazing! The food was amazing! No power on a 45 degree day, not so great, but that was out of their control!
