Charters Towers is one of Queensland’s most historically significant cities — a former financial capital of North QLD that produced $150M+ in gold at its 1870s–1920s peak. Today it’s a city of ~8,000 with an unusually diverse economy: cattle, private boarding schools, government services, and heritage tourism, 135km from Townsville.
