North Terrace Information

Many of South Australia's great cultural institutions are located on leafy North Terrace (also known as Adelaide's cultural boulevard). The State's library, museum, art gallery and the Migration Museum have pride of place alongside Parliament House, the University of Adelaide and Government House - making this the perfect starting point for any cultural experience in South Australia. (And a series of great self-guided heritage walks will point you in the right direction.)

The recently refurbished State Library of South Australia is worth a visit in its own right, but has also become a Mecca for cricket fans keen to pay tribute to Australia's cricketing icon, Sir Donald Bradman. See 52 scrapbooks documenting Sir Donald's career from 1925 to 1948, plus more than 140 items including trophies, bats, clothing and oral recordings.

At the South Australian Museum you can explore the life and science of explorer Sir Douglas Mawson (and see his sled, tools, boots, camel-hair sleeping bag and a model of his Antarctic hut). Or find the opalised skeleton of a six-metre-long plesiosaur and other stunning opal fossils in the Fossil Gallery.
