Prince Henry Gardens
by dlandt
Along the Eastern stretch of North are the Prince Henry Gardens which are decorated with busts of famous Adelaiders, like the early suffragate Mary Lee, shown here. Adelaide, surprisingly, was a pioneer in women's emancipation, something they take pride in. In fact, there is apparently a time capsule buried beneath their parliament, a message from the women of 1853(?) to the women of 2053(?). I'll be dead when they open it, but hopefully you won't.

Fishermans Wharf markets Port Adelaide
by adelaidean about Port adelaide markets
These marketsare unique as they are found in one of the historic warehouses along the wharf at Port Adelaide. These wharfs are still used during the week, and on the weekends it becomes alive with tourists and travellers looking for something different.
There are two levels holding 150 stalls, ranging from bizaare clothing to old vinyl LPs. If its tools that the men are after, then this is the place to find it.
There are many places to eat, including the many pubs that one would find at Port Adelaide.
While you are there, climb the Port Adelaide lighthouse, which is located right next to the market entrance.
Go with Premier
by Charlie_UK
While Adelaide has a comprehensive bus and train service, and a tram running from the city to Glenelg, the best way to venture further is via the Premier Stateliner network or the Greyhound buses. These serve all manner of upstate locations, such as Ceduna and Barossa (mentioned elsewhere)
