The Golden Gumboot - a famous landmark in Tully, Queensland, Australia


This giant, yellow wellington boot is made out of fibreglass. The Golden Gumboot is metres tall. There is a staircase inside, which can be climbed for views out over the town. Opened in 2003, the Golden Gumboot cost $90,000 to construct, and it celebrates the Queensland town’s claim to fame as the wettest place in Australia.
