Adelaide Sightseeing

Sightseeing Overview

Adelaide is an easy city to walk around. Take the time to admire the historical buildings: King William features the Town Hall and the General Post Office, and further along North Terrace you'll find Parliament House and the State Library.

If you fancy a stroll away from the city centre, then head into one of Adelaide's many parks, the Botanic Gardens, or the track besides the River Torrens. Be tempted by the fresh produce available from the Adelaide Central Market. Adelaide has some marvellous museums, don't miss the Australian Aboriginal Cultures Gallery at the South Australian Museum - it offers fascinating insights into the culture of the indigenous population.
