Adelaide - South Australia:
Adelaide
is an elegant city is known for its colonial stone architecture,
expansive parklands, lively festivals and incredible sense of space.
Explore the museums and libraries of North Terrace, dine on dedicated
‘eat streets’ or picnic in gardens that sprawl over almost
half the city. Go bike riding in Botanic Park or row past rose gardens
in
Rymill Park. Swim with dolphins or learn to sail
in
Glenelg or fish from the jetty in
Henley. Just beyond the city centre you’ll find
the picturesque
Adelaide Hills and the world-class
wineries of the
Barossa Valley.

Adelaide Oval Cricket
Ground is one of Australia's most picturesque test cricket
grounds, situated in parklands with the backdrop of St. Peter's Cathedral.

Jetty Road at Glenelg, enjoy the seaside village atmosphere at Brighton,
or take in the stunning views from Kingston House, located at Kingston
Park. And don't miss Semaphore, for a classic beach escape, with
everything from an historic carousel and coastal train ride, through to
fish and chip cafes and kite flying festivals.
