Chinese heritage is an integral part of Bendigo. From the goldrush to the present day, the Bendigo Chinese community has influenced the proud history of Bendigo - from its tradition of charitable works for local hospitals to its spectacular displays in the Bendigo Easter Fair.
Having become the hub of the Chinese cultural activity in Australia, the museum allows visitors to experience first hand, Chinese arts and crafts with visiting artisans and tradespeople. Central to the permanent display is Sun Loong the longest imperial dragon in the world (over 100 metres long), Loong the oldest imperial dragon in the world and their accompanying regalia - previously only viewed by visitors to Bendigo Easter Fair, but now available to the publice all year round.
