Hobart is Tasmania's capital city and the second oldest capital in Australia.
The Waterfront is a brilliant place to explore. Wander around Contsitution Dock, peruse the markets at Salamanca Place and discover historic Battery Point to experience galleries, theatres, craft shops and restaurants.
Salamanca Market is Tasmania's most visited tourism attraction and runs each Saturday from 8.30am to 3pm, rain, hail or shine.
The market extends the full length of Hobart's historic Salamanca Place, from the silos end to the top of Davey Street. You will find a huge selection of locally made products and you can meet the makers, the artisans, the designers and producers.
With over 300 stallholders, the market includes fresh produce from local growers, hot coffee, delicious breakfast and lunch options, lots of gift ideas and plenty of handmade products.
The market is one of those special places where you can find plenty of handmade and home-grown produce, mingle with the locals, enjoy the vibrancy and atmosphere, and discover the heart of a creative island.
Battery Point is a great place to take a walk and view the colonial buildings and historical houses.
