Yenda

China

Yenda is a town located in the Riverina district of New South Wales, Australia. It is situated within the Murrumbidgee Irrigation Area, approximately 16 kilometres east of Griffith, 65 kilometres northwest of Narrandera, and 550 kilometres west of Sydney.

The area was originally characterized by 15-acre farms, most of which have since been consolidated into large vineyards. While many original farmhouses have disappeared, the local farm roads retain names honoring the original settlers. In 2011, the town had a recorded population of 1,503 residents.

Historically, Yenda hosted various commercial services including clothing stores, bakeries, butchers, and a cinema; however, most residents currently conduct their shopping in the nearby city of Griffith.
