Gwalia Ghost Town - Western Australia

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.
