Echuca, located in northern Victoria, Australia, is a historic river port town situated on the banks of the Murray River. Established in the 1850s, it became Australia's largest inland port during the paddlesteamer era, playing a crucial role in the region's development. The town's name derives from the Aboriginal word 'tchiuka,' meaning 'meeting of the waters,' referring to the junction of the Murray and Campaspe rivers.
Today, Echuca maintains strong connections to its maritime heritage through its preserved Port of Echuca precinct, which includes historic wharf structures and restored paddlesteamers. The town's cultural identity is deeply rooted in its river trading past, with various heritage buildings and museums showcasing its significance in Australia's inland shipping history. The combination of its historic architecture, riverside location, and preservation of cultural heritage makes Echuca an important destination for understanding Australia's colonial and riverboat history.
