DAI GUM SAN PRECINT

In a bygone era, thousands of intrepid Cantonese Chinese travelled across dangerous seas and rugged countryside to reach the rich goldfields in the heart of Victoria. They called this place, Dai Gum San, Big Gold Mountain. A place of untold wealth and promise.
 
Today, Dai Gum San is again rich as the Chinese Cultural Centre of Australia. Where wealth was once measured in gold, it now sits in the deep history left behind by those early Chinese miners.
 
The beautiful new Chinese precinct links the Golden Dragon Museum with the Yi Yuan Gardens and Kuan Yin Temple. Spanning the historic Bendigo creek this new development glitters with golden pavers and colourful Chinese symbolism. The gardens are a place of peace and beauty and the Kuan Yin Temple is a stunning home for the goddess of compassion
 
There is no finer place in Australia to enjoy the rich Chinese culture than Dai Gum San.
