Sovereign Hill

Australia’s foremost outdoor museum – Sovereign Hill, recreates Ballarat’s first ten years after the discovery of gold in 1851 when thousands of international fortune-hunters rushed to the Australian goldfields in search of riches. By day, Sovereign Hill is where Australia’s history comes to life! It's just like stepping back in time – from the hustle and bustle of Main Street where men and women in costumes of the period parade their new-found wealth.
Appu poses beside a model of an ancient resident of Sovereign Hill and blends with the scene.
In one of the workers' tents Elishba is given a little paper bird made by the Chinese woman (but it is in the Japanese origami style).
