The Victorian town of Maldon is located in a historical gold mining region between the larger centres of Castlemaine and Bendigo. Maldon has been perfectly preserved since its mining days and is Australia's First Notable Town - classified by the National Trust in 1966. Its list of historic buildings is impressive and includes the railway station (built in 1884), the Grand Hotel (1888), the old post office (1870) and a number of churches. Many of the commercial buildings located along Maldon's streets have been converted into cafes, galleries and antiques shops to cater for the influx of visitors who choose to step back in time by visiting this uniquely preserved historic gold mining town with a streetscape that looks like it hasn't changed for well over a hundred years.
