Plenty must see attractions
1. Salamanca Market
For 50 years, Salamanca Market has welcomed Hobart residents and visitors every Saturday. Local lore says the market was created in 1972 because Hobart was considered a dead city on Saturdays and the mayor and aldermen wanted to liven things up. Come any weekend to see just how animated the area now becomes every Saturday.

2. Salamanca Place
The warehouses that make up Salamanca Place were built during the 1820 and ’30s using sandstone quarried by convicts on site. The warehouses were used to store whale products, wool, timber and fruit. The wharf at Salamanca was a hub for whaling industries, and the huge cauldrons used to boil whale oil can still be seen today in Salamanca Square. As Tasmania’s fruit growing capabilities took off, the warehouses were used to produce jam and tinned fruit for export.

4. Mt. Wellington
Mount Wellington has been popular with locals as a recreational park since the mid-1800s when huts were built at strategic sites for hikers. Remnants of these huts exist, and some of those built in the 1900s are still in use. Charles Darwin climbed the mountain in 1836 when he visited Hobart on his round-the-world trip on the HMS Beagle. Today the area offers all sorts of outdoor pursuits, from mountain biking to rock climbing.
