Adelaide Botanic Gardens
Opened to the public in 1857, Adelaide Botanic Garden was created to showcase the beauty of plants and how they shape our environment and society as a whole. It covers more than 50 hectares of lush parkland featuring a formal rose garden, wetlands, and three glasshouses that house exotic plant species from all over the world, including Amazonian water lilies and Madagascar palms.
Whether you love taking strolls through endless verdant sceneries or admiring the gorgeous architecture, you will definitely find yourself taking lots of pictures. If you’re using your mobile device’s camera to take snapshots, don’t forget to connect your smartphone to a phone cord.

Rundle Mall
If you’re looking forward to a great shopping experience while admiring stunning architecture, head out to Rundle Mall. It’s the city’s main shopping district and Adelaide’s first pedestrian-style mall. You can find a wide array of local and international retailers here, as well as posh boutiques and a vibrant arcade connected to the mall. Apart from the multitude of shops, Rundle Mall is also widely known for its impressive architecture and fine sculptures that include a giant cockroach statue, the Spheres, and a group of life-sized pigs loitering around a rubbish bin.
When your attention is solely focused on shopping, it can be challenging to keep up with your valuables. To ensure that your phone is safe while you walk through the busy and crowded Rundle Mall, a phone carrier will be helpful. Simply place your phone in a clear or coloured phone case and attach it to a phone lanyard or chain. Phone cases and Straps come in a wide variety of colours and styles. We suggest choosing a phone cord made from a thicker and more durable material, so you don’t have to worry about losing or dropping your smartphone.
