Adelaide

Adelaide is the capital of South Australia. It is a coastal city beside the Southern Ocean, and is situated on the Adelaide Plains, north of the Fleurieu Peninsula. Adelaide is the Festival City with numerous churches, sandstone homes and cottages with sweeping gardens and greenbelts, an abundance of food and wine served in one of the many restaurants and cafes around town. With spacious boulevards and vibrant inner-city districts, sophisticated architecture and lush gardens, it is an inviting city that has successfully managed to keep a relaxed and leisurely pace. You might want to immerse yourself in the culture of Adelaide's North Terrace with its many museums and cafes. Whether you want to party or relax on your next holiday, South Australia's capital has it all!

 

Adelaide prides itself as being a gourmet city and diners are treated to low prices and high standards. Buzzing with sounds, colours and wondrous smells, nothing can beat the Adelaide Central Market for a free morning’s entertainment as one wanders around the stalls laden with fresh produce. It is a great place to get a cheap meal; one not only finds fresh fruit and vegetables, but the largest range of meat and fish, along with gourmet specialties and other delicacies. Sit and people watch at the lively Italian and Thai al fresco cafes and restaurants in Rundle Street or relax in quiet Hindmarsh Square where there is a good selection of fantastic restaurants to choose from. Across the river in North Adelaide, Italian Bistros, gourmet providores, pubs with great food and live music await eager punters.
