I’ve lived in Beechworth for 20 years and think its the most beautiful place in Australia, during every season. We’ve just experienced a spectatular Autumn display in nearly every street in our town and are now enjoying a crisp cold Winter with lovely fires to curl up in front of.
Beechworth is full of unexplainable wonders, one really has to experience it to understand. The locals are kind, the shops are full of amazing things and one just can’t go past the pub counter meals. A true delight, I only wish I could go there every weekend.
