Today we're heading to Dandenong, a district in southeast Melbourne that's completely unlike the Australia we're used to.
Here, in just a few minutes, you can feel like you're in another country: Indian shops and restaurants, Afghan cafes and bakeries, Eastern sweets, spices, traditional clothing, and traditional bread baked in special ovens.
Our walk begins in Little India, Dandenong's Indian cultural quarter. We'll explore the shops and restaurants, see what's happening in this unique area, and then head to Lonsdale Street and other streets, home to numerous Afghan establishments.
But the walk turned out to be anything but ordinary. An unpleasant incident occurred in one of the shops: the owner demanded that we delete the video from the camera and asked us to leave. This was an unexpected experience for me, especially since we entered as potential customers.
And our walk will end in the most pleasant way possible – with dinner at an Afghan restaurant! I'm finally going to try some real kebab, which I haven't had in ages.
Dandenong is a truly multicultural and unique corner of Melbourne. It truly feels like you're traveling through several countries without leaving Australia.
Enjoy watching! 🇦🇺
🏛️ Interesting Historical Facts
1. Dandenong is much older than modern Melbourne as we know it.
Before European settlement, the Bunurong people lived here, and the area was rich in natural resources and used for trade.
2. Dandenong became an important trading post as early as the 19th century.
By the 1850s, a town had already formed here, becoming an important stopover on the route from Melbourne to Gippsland. It was even called the "gateway to Gippsland."
3. Dandenong Market has been in existence since 1866.
The first official market day was held on October 10, 1866. At that time, trade primarily consisted of livestock and agricultural produce. By 1870, the market attracted up to 300 vendors and buyers.
4. Little India was no accident.
The Indian trade cluster in Dandenong began to develop around 1990, and in 2015, Dandenong was designated as the location of Victoria's first Indian Cultural Precinct.
Today, central Dandenong is home to approximately 62 Indian businesses, 33 of which are located in Little India.
5. The Afghan community has also become an important part of the area.
Afghan migration to Dandenong has increased significantly since the 1990s, in part due to the resettlement of people from Afghanistan. Today, Greater Dandenong is one of the largest centers of the Afghan community in Victoria, with approximately 7,268 people of Afghan descent, according to the Victorian Government.
6. Dandenong is one of Victoria's most multicultural areas.
Greater Dandenong is home to people from more than 150 countries and speaks more than 40 languages. More than half of the residents were born outside Australia.

А ещё лет пять, как я закупаюсь свежей рыбой, иногда мясом и овощами- фруктами на Dandenong Market -е раз в месяц.
Согласна, постоянно находишься в напряге - идёшь как танк, никого не цепляя глазами.. и никогда ещё, слава Богу, не было никаких казусов.
Всего вам доброго!
Завода Тойота там никогда не было. Завод Тойоты всегда был в Altona North. Эта площадка до сих пор принадлежит Тойоте, в отличие от заводов GM, которые снесли.
