Bellingen

Bellingen is a small town (pop 2,721) on Waterfall Way on the Mid North Coast of New South Wales, Australia. It is approximately halfway between the major Australian cities of Sydney and Brisbane. It is the seat of Bellingen Shire and has a mixture of valley, plateau and coastal environments. It's also full of magic art deco buildings :)

The classic 1910 Bellingen Courthouse.	The Bellingen 1900 Federal Hotel was revamped in 2005.	The JP Halpin & Sons store in Bellingen dates back to 1927 and is an art deco classic.
More great art deco in this old bank building in Bellingen's main street.	The art deco style just makes this Bellingen accommodation something special :)	This old timber shop is one of the veterans in Bellingen's main street.
The 1929 Soldiers Memorial Hall & Literary Institute also graces Bellingen's main street.	Bellingen's St Andrews Uniting Church looks like a fortress :)	The 1900 Commercial Emporium is another standout in Bellingen's main street.
