Tranquility and relaxation are the bywords on any stroll through Adelaide's Botanic Garden. The garden provides a great opportunity to relax amidst subtropical plants or to wine and dine next to the lake. Two of the most impressive glasshouse structures in the garden are literally an age apart. The elegant Palm House, which opened in 1877, is recognized as the finest Victorian glasshouse in Australia and houses a fascinating display of Madagascan flora. Conversely, the space-age Bicentennial Conservatory encloses tropical rain forest plants from northern Australia, the Pacific islands and Asia.

Every year Adelaide's majestic Botanic Park swells with rhythms from every corner of the globe. Once you have encountered the sounds and smells of this world-renowned music festival you will never want to leave! Played on seven different stages, there are 30 hours of traditional and contemporary music from more than 20 countries - Armenia, Cuba, Nigeria, and Argentina to name a few. Meanwhile dance, arts, crafts and food stalls will tempt you. Take your rug, pillows, sunscreen and arrive early for the best position.
