Pause and capture an image of the colossal watermelon slice, measuring nine meters in width and weighing four tonnes. This impressive slice holds a prominent position on the Warrego Highway, situated between the Chinchilla Visitor Information Centre and the railway crossing. Chinchilla participated in a nationwide online travel company competition aimed at constructing a novel “Big Thing.” In a resounding victory, Chinchilla’s proposal for the oversized melon slice outshone three other contenders, solidifying its status as a remarkable and oversized tourist attraction.
