Gold was first discovered in Bendigo in 1851 and the following years saw the area experience a gold rush of massive proportions.
In 1852 the amount of gold found in Ironbark was so great that the holes were referred to as "Jeweler's shops."
Bendigo city is situated in central Victoria, Australia, in the central upland area of the state; it is about 95 miles (150 km) northwest of Melbourne by road.
Founded as a sheep run in 1840, the city's official name was Sandhurst until 1891 when it was formally changed to honour a local prizefighter who compared his own prowess to that of the English pugilist known as Bendigo.
An important gold discovery on the Bendigo Creek (1851) brought rapid growth and created an impressive city with fine examples of Victorian architecture and tree lined streets. Mining ceased in1955.
Bendigo is now the commercial focus of a region that produces livestock, fruit, poultry, wheat, dairy products, vegetables and wool.
It's livestock market, one of the largest in Australia, handles more than one million sheep each year.
