Victoria Square

#summervacay Victoria Square / Tarntanyangga, the historic and modern heart of Adelaide, South Australia—perfect for exploring the city’s heritage, civic life, and cultural moments. Established in 1837 by Colonel William Light as the central square in his Adelaide city plan, Victoria Square was named in honour of Princess Victoria. In 2002 it was dual-named Tarntanyangga, which in the Kaurna language means “red kangaroo rock place,” acknowledging the square’s cultural importance to Indigenous Australians. It spans approximately 2.4 hectares (6 acres) at the junction of King William Street, Grote Street, and Wakefield Street. #australia #victoria #naturalwonders
