Sovereign Hill. An amazing recreation of an 1850’s gold town. The attention to detail over acres and acres of land was incredible! We ventured underground to experience a ‘collapsed’ gold mine, tried our hand at panning, watched a gold pour (and held a $220,000 gold bar 🤑), wandered through the different living options from tent, to cottage to mansion, enjoyed the street theatre (even if the guy playing a criminal was the same guy who was a soldier 30 minutes ago 😂), saw some children in their lessons, bowled and watched (and tasted) some sweets being made. Best Friday 13th ever!
