Secret place in the suburbs of Melbourne｜Kangaroo hug + gold rush adventure full record! 🦘⛏️💛

📍It takes about 1.5 hours from Melbourne to arrive at the fairytale city: Ballarat! The first stop is the popular Ballarat Wildlife Park, where you can interact with kangaroos up close, and meet koalas, Tasmanian demons, and wombats; when I first saw the kangaroo, I wanted to hug it (my baby 🐰 appeared in my mind) but I was still a little shy...until I saw the child in front of me hugging it tightly, I decided to follow suit - the kangaroos here are for touching As a result, it was really natural to be hugged, and it felt super enjoyable 💛 (with a strong Australian enthusiasm!) It is estimated that you can stay for 2-3 hours After that, you can drive to the Sovereign Hill Gold Rush Historical Village with a strong sense of history. The drive takes about half an hour, which is very fast. This is a replica village from the Australian gold rush era, with underground gold mine tunnels, old-fashioned shopping streets, candy workshops, and glass-burning displays. It is highly recommended for travelers who like in-depth travel. The entire venue is not large and can be visited in one afternoon. The tour guides are very enthusiastic and friendly. Because I went there during the Lunar New Year, there were large snake-shaped lanterns in front of the museum, which gave me a deep experience of Australia's cultural diversity and openness! Later, I chatted with the tour guides. When they heard me speak Chinese, they kept saying Happy New Year to me. I didn't expect that I could still feel the flavor of the Lunar New Year after traveling across the ocean.
