Queenstown is a historic mining town located in the western part of Tasmania, Australia. Founded in the late 19th century following the discovery of gold and copper, the town has a rich industrial heritage that has shaped both its landscape and culture.

The surrounding hills, stripped of vegetation due to past mining activities and acid rain, create a distinctive moonscape that tells the story of the region's mining history. Today, Queenstown maintains strong connections to its mining past while also serving as a gateway to Tasmania's wilderness areas. The town features historic architecture, including the restored Empire Hotel and the West Coast Wilderness Railway, which operates heritage train journeys through the rugged terrain. The local community preserves its cultural heritage through various historical sites and museums that document the area's mining and pioneering history.
