Travelling Hobart
Before You Travel
Once the haunt of sailors, whalers and workmen, the cobblestone square of Salamanca Place is now Hobart’s top tourist spot, with lots of places to dine and imbibe. The Georgian warehouses house have been reinvented as galleries, theatres, cafes, bars and restaurants, with glass and chrome glinting over the 1830s sandstone. Browse the bustling Saturday markets for a one-off piece of craft, organic fruit and vegetables or freshly-cut flowers. Drink coffee under the sun umbrellas or taste a pint of Tasmanian beer in a historic pub. Catch a local band at the Salamanca Arts Centre or wander past the busking string quartets.
