Walhalla, Victoria

Walhalla is a small town in Victoria, Australia, founded as a gold-mining community in early 1862 and at its peak home to around 4,000 residents.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title = The ghosts of Walhalla's gold mining past )〕 Today, the town has a population of fewer than 20 permanent residents, though it has a large proportion of houses owned as holiday properties.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title = Walhalla, the golden oldie )〕 It attracts large numbers of tourists and is a major focus of the regional tourism industry.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title = Inside Australia’s ghost towns )〕 The town's name is taken from an early gold mine in the area, named for the German hall of fame, the Walhalla temple (Valhalla from Norse legend).〔
==Geography==
Walhalla is located in South-East Australia, in the eastern Victorian region of Gippsland,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title = Victoria’s most beautiful towns: From Walhalla, to Kyneton to Bright )〕 about 180 kilometres from the state capital Melbourne.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title = Walhalla Star Hotel )〕 It is located in the Great Dividing Range, in the steep Stringers Creek valley, approximately four kilometres upstream of the creek's junction with the Thomson River. The area around the town is designated as an historic area, adjoining the Baw Baw National Park.〔Ham, A., Holden, T., Morgan, K. (''Lonely Planet Melbourne & Victoria'' ). Lonely Planet, 2014. ISBN 9781743600177
The township is mainly located along one road which winds along the valley floor due to the steep terrain.〔Wheeler, D. (''Melbourne & Victoria City Guide'' ). Lonely Planet, 2008, p. 283. ISBN 9781741048629〕 After the 52 year gold rush period, Walhalla's population declined rapidly since the level of the gold has been extinct〔(【引用サイトリンク】title = Pure gold )〕 and for the latter part of the 20th century fewer than 20 people lived in the town as permanent residents.〔
