Coober Pedy
Coober Pedy is a small town in South Australia known for its underground dwellings or "dugouts". The harsh desert climate and extreme temperatures led early settlers to dig underground homes to escape the heat.
Today, the town is a popular destination for tourists interested in the unique architecture and mining history. Visitors can tour the underground homes, mines, and even try their hand at opal mining. Coober Pedy is also home to the historic Umoona Opal Mine & Museum, which offers a glimpse into the town's past and the opal mining industry.
