Buraja (Шаблон:IPAc-en Шаблон:Respell) is a town community in the central south part of the Murray. It is about Шаблон:Convert east of Berrigan on the Riverina Highway.
The Aboriginal name Buraja means ‘a swamp with young trees growing.’ When people settled in the Buraja district in the 1860s there were two parishes – Lowes and Buraja. The name Lowes (Lowesdale) was taken from one of the owners of ‘Buraja Station,’ a local farm.[1]
