"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 South Australian capital is nicknamed the City of Churches, but its most famous cathedral is dedicated to sport, a venue that routinely draws a crowd of 50,000-plus to worship at the altar of cricket and Australian football. Rock up in summer for a game of cricket – either the Australian national team or the Adelaide Strikers Big Bash franchise – or in winter to see the city’s beloved AFL clubs, the Adelaide Crows and Port Adelaide Power."
"Whilst Rundle Mall is pretty much your run of the mill capital city shopping precinct, it does boast a few little marvels which make it worth visiting on your stay in Adelaide with kids.

Head in to taste some chocolate and buy some Australia handmade chocolate bliss!"

"Get up close and personal with roos, koalas, wallabies, betongs and Tasmanian devils with the kids in Adelaide – most of which are in their natural habitat – and itʼs just 20 minutes away from the city centre!. Itʼs also a great place to have a picnic. For opening hours, information on planning your day, fees and to buy tickets, head straight to the website."
"Cleland Wildlife Park is one of the best zoos and wildlife parks in and near Adelaide and in all of Australia. It is a favourite of tourists and locals alike. Cleland is one of the few parks where you can hold and pat koalas, and feed kangaroos, wallabies, emus, bettongs and potoroos."

"The Adelaide University campus itself has some wonderful spots hidden around the place as it’s such an old campus. One such spot has romenesque columns lining a walkway towards a door. This one spot – quite close to the Torrens footbridge – has become a huge hot spot for wedding photography often having to queue up behind other wedding couples wanting to have photos done there on a Saturday."
