Gwalia Ghost Town - Western Australia

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 18 ก.ย. 2024
- Gwalia will transport you back to the 1800s and give you a glimpse of how the miners lived out in this hot, dry, dusty land.
Up on the hill, the luxury of the mine manager's house (Hoover House) stands in stark contrast to the squalid tin shacks that would be like ovens in summer and ice boxes in winter.
Many of the old buildings have been preserved including the shops, boarding house, sly grog shop, garage and of course the miner's huts. This is an amazing attraction and is a MUST SEE location on anyone's trip through the goldfields.
The local shire has created a unique place that is a real credit to everyone involved.

It is depressing to see the State Hotel in Gwalia in such a bad way, every time I'm up there I get great pangs of sadness when I see the grand old lady in such a state of disrepair.
Yup, they are just allowing it to rot. That hotel should belong to the people of W.A. not some greedy mining company that doesn't care about its historic value.
A very depressing clip to watch as history will be eventually lost. This is one of the best clips I have seen from you
Thanks Gary.
#bucketlist #fomo so many places to visit, so many already lost that i didn't make it to see in time
Big Bell, also a State Hotel.
Interesting, I wasn't aware of that.
How sad for history to be lost.
most of the goldfield area difficult use
USA 🇺🇸 president Hoover lived in Kalgoorlie before he became president..i wonder how many people know that?
Probably more people in Australia know about it than people in the USA.
