Port Adelaide has been transformed into a giant, outdoor gallery as result of the 2015 and 2017 Wonderwalls Street Art Festivals. Wonderwalls is a 3-day mural festival that has been held in Wollongong and Port Adelaide (Australia) several times over the past few years.
Port Adelaide has many well preserved 19th-century buildings, in fact, Port Adelaide has one of the best concentrations of colonial buildings in South Australia. In 1982 a considerable part of the town was declared a State Heritage Area. The “Walk The Port” self-guided heritage walking tour has over 40 points of interest, including 17 heritage listed buildings… so grab the FREE “Walk The Port” map and hit the streets to discover Port Adelaide’s colourful history!
Street food is a quintessential experience of Thailand should not be missed. Don’t limit yourself to hotel restaurants and other fancy venues; if you do, you will miss out of some of the most sense stimulating food there is. Thai food looks exciting, smells delicious and is a tastebud’s delight. Vivid, aromatic and piquant… it ticks all the boxes.
The following 21 hotels offer budget accommodation or at least reasonably priced accommodation. Some of them are not worth staying at, read on to find out what we though about cheap Thai accommodation. We book all our accommodation through booking.com and have certainly picked up some bargains during our travels.
The largest railway museum collection of paraphernalia, exhibits and artefacts in Australia. There are over a hundred exhibitions displaying not only South Australia’s railway history, but that of Australia and the private operators also. Heaps to entertain children including free train rides!
When you walk into the museum’s main hangar and see the aircraft you’ll know what I mean. What a display! There is over 100 years of aviation history to explore and I think you’ll love every minute of it! Whether you are an aviation enthusiast or historian; a child seeking to enjoy the day out with mum and dad…. or simply a parent attempting to entertain the kids, this museum is for you.
As we entered the museum it was like stepping back in time. We were staring at a large ketch from the 1800’s and hearing all the sounds of the daily action in the port. Seagulls squawked, bells tinkered, and sailors called back and forth to each other….. There truly is a wealth of information at this museum. I would not hesitate to recommend the South Australian Maritime Museum, it was really a lot of fun as well as very interesting. There is a lot of Port Adelaide’s, and in fact South Australia’s, history packed within these galleries!
I would not hesitate to recommend this as a fun activity, for groups, couples, individuals, children’s birthday parties and definitely for tourists wanting to have fun and see some sights (great views from the upper level). I also think it is a safe way to conquer your fear and an awesome way to test your strength, agility and ability for those wanting to challenge themselves.
Street vendors peddling delicious local balinese foods are a common sight on the streets of Bali. Many of my favourite Balinese foods are sold by street vendors, either from their street stall or food carts. Street foods sold on the streets of Bali, and in fact all of Indonesia, are varied, cheap and tasty.
