    The village was absolutely lovely! Felt very real, as if I was really back in the 1850s. All the actors and actresses were also very polite and dedicated to their role - it was very adorable to be greeted with a tip of a hat. They were also very funny. The gold pour demonstration was also interesting, and we also watched another demonstration of a musket gun firing. Although aside from these olden sights, there isn't that much to do in this village. The ticket price is slightly high, about 60AUD for adults and you still have to top up for the gold mine tour which we did not go on. But the atmosphere created by the physical environment as well as the dedication and effort of all the actors and actresses was amazing and made up for the lack of things to do. We also watched the Blood of the Southern Cross, and although the timing of all the light and sound is impressive, the show itself was not that captivating. Most of it was just narration accompanied by effects. An interesting re-enactment of historical events, but for those not interested in history, it might be a bit of a bore.
