Despre activitate
Step right into the historic and culture heart of South Australia on our Adelaide: Victoria Square Guided Walking Tour. Carefully crafted for passionate history enthusiasts, this 2 hour journey explores the grand civic architecture, legal landmarks, and fascinating political and social history surrounding Victoria Square (Tarntanyangga).
Led by an expert locally born and bred Adelaide guide, you will discover how this central square evolved from a simple dusty clearing into the proud focal point of our colonial democracy.
Our leisurely stroll takes you past the spectacular stone facades of the city's most powerful historic institutions:
The Historic Legal Precinct: Admire the grand architecture of the Supreme Court and the Magistrates Court, and uncover dramatic stories of early colonial justice, famous trials and legal trailblazers.
The Majestic Treasury Buildings: Explore the exterior and parts of the interior of one of Adelaide's oldest surviving public buildings.
