Скачать или смотреть Sofala (1862) Gold Rush town

Spent this weekend at Sofala, NSW.

A quiet Gold mining town, 45 minutes away from Bathurst. Established in 1862. Has a current population of about 100 permanent residents.

1 pub, Café, general store, gold panning store and a table under a tent that sells jam, jerky and locally made honey.

Residents of this town are absolute characters. Friendly and accommodating, polite and helpful.

Being From Sydney, it was refreshing and welcomed change from the go, go, go lifestyle I’m used to.

The landscape has clearly been shaped by the Gold Rush with rocky mounds all outside of town from panning and sifting through.

I’ve learned a few things from this trip, the main one being if you’re planning to go to a small town, if you want any info, call the pub. They’ll fill you in
