This article examines three Australian case studies of heritage tourism based on ethnic diasporas. These are: the German village of Hahndorf, the cluster of Italian-themed vineyards in the King Valley, and the Golden Dragon Chinese Precinct in Bendigo. It is argued that while the heritage tourism experiences constructed at these places are firmly based on ethnic diasporas, the primary market for them is the general (or incidental) heritage visitor who often has no ethnic connection. Accordingly, these are highly mediated places representing ethnic culture as part of a shared heritage.
