Destination Guide :: South Australia - Destination Guide

For a state capital, Adelaide feels small, but it is uncrowded and attractive, priding itself on its culture, entertainment, fine food and relaxed lifestyle. Founded as a free settler's colony in the 1830s, it boasts plenty of imposing colonial buildings and more museums and art galleries than you could shake a stick at.

There are also a number of good beaches in the suburbs, the most famous being Glenelg, a short ride away from the city by tram, which boasts a lively cafe scene and nightlife.

In the city, most groovy spots are concentrated in a couple of central locations, Rundle St is filled with cafes, nightclubs, pubs, wine bars and shops. Hindley Street is a famous red light area with a suitably motley crew of revellers.
