About this experience
Travel back to the 1850s at Sovereign Hill, an open‑air living museum that recreates Ballarat's gold rush decade. You can pan for real gold in the creek, explore underground mines, and meet costumed characters roaming the main street. Watch traditional tradespeople at work, including troopers, butchers, and confectioners making boiled sweets. This immersive experience offers a unique glimpse into Australia's deep history.
