12 Top Tourist Attractions in Adelaide
"Widely reputed to be the prettiest cricket ground in the world, the Adelaide Oval hosts all kinds of different sporting events throughout the year. Opened in 1871, it still exhibits some incredible Edwardian architecture in places, and its old scoreboard helps retain its charm among the more modern developments. Watching a game of cricket or Australian rules football here is a great way to experience the passion with which Aussies support their local teams."

"The wildlife never fails to amaze us and zoos and wildlife parks are a great way of witnessing the animal kingdom first hand. The best part about the Cleland Wildlife Park is that the animals here do not live in caged enclosures. Instead, they are enclosed in such a way that they don’t feel caged and are in their natural environment."

Beer Travel: The Adelaide Hills
"If you're in town and in need of a feed, you're in luck, particularly if you're a carnivore. Along the main strip of Hahndorf, there are loads of German style pubs and most will have some sort of traditional beer style on tap, often an import such as Weihenstephan or Hofbräu. The Haus is a little different from the rest, however, a little classier than some and with tap and bottle lists that are quite impressive, balancing local, interstate and European beers."
