Dandenong is located 29km east of the Melbourne CBD. Its name is derived from the word ‘Tenjenong,’ which means loft mountains. Dandenong sits along Dandenong Creek and is home to some thirty thousand people. With that many inhabitants, there’s plenty on offer! There’s also a lot of history. Dandenong began as a pastoral area in the mid to late nineteenth century. Its accommodating landscape saw it grow significantly, though, and is part of the reason for its strong population today.
