It was a weekend getaway to Hobart (Tasmania), Australia with my partner. We started our Hobart adventure with a visit to the iconic Salamanca Market, open every Saturday. The vibrant atmosphere, local artisans, and street performers made it perfect for photos 📸 The stalls filled with handmade crafts, fresh produce 🍎 and unique souvenirs 🎁 were a treat to explore. We recommend going early to beat the crowds and get the best light for photos. 📍Salamanca Place, Hobart TAS 7000 After the market, we explored the Battery Point area, a picturesque historic district. Wandering through the quaint streets felt like stepping back in time. Arthur Circus Park, with its charming cottages, is a must-visit for photography enthusiasts. 📍Battery Point, Hobart TAS 7004 As the day turned golden, we headed to the Waterfront Esplanade. Watching the sunset over the Derwent River was magical. The reflections of boats 🛥️ in the water created stunning photo opportunities. We dined at one of the seafood 🦞 restaurants nearby to end the day perfectly. 📍Hobart Waterfront, Franklin Wharf, Hobart TAS 7000 We also visited to Mount Wellington (Kunanyi) 🏔️ The summit offers breathtaking panoramic views of Hobart, the River Derwent, and beyond. We recommend going early in the morning when the light is soft and the skies are clearer for photography 📸 P/S: Bring a jacket🧥 as it can get quite chilly up there! 📍Pinnacle Road, Wellington Park TAS 7054 We also explored Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens. The gardens are beautifully landscaped, and we loved photographing the Japanese Garden and the lily pond. It’s such a peaceful spot to unwind and take stunning nature shots. 📍 Lower Domain Rd, Queens Domain TAS 7000 We ended our trip with a visit to MONA (Museum of Old and New Art). It’s unlike any museum we’ve ever been to. The unique architecture and thought-provoking exhibits make it a top spot for both art lovers and Instagram-worthy photos 📸 Plan to take the ferry for an extra scenic touch. 📍655 Main Rd, Berriedale TAS 7011 🌦️Hobart’s weather can change quickly, so dress in layers and check forecasts. #australiatrip #getaway #trip

#Halloween2023 #hobart #tasmania #weekendtrip #overseastrip #trip Hobert is a second oldest city in Australia. There are a lot of very old buildings all around the city center and it is really beautiful at night with lighting to match. This weekend I went there and there were a lot of locals going to the bar to drink and it was lively. I went there to feel the local atmosphere, although it was very cold in winter when I went, but it was really a very characteristic city.

#Halloween2023 #hobart #australia #seafood #travel abroad #relaxation Brooke Street Pier, a pier in Hobert, is a building with day tour registration, is quite a new building. Along the area of ​​this building are coastal areas, you can see beautiful scenery, the blue sky with the sky reflection on the sea is really beautiful. There is one at the pier where you can buy oysters, the price is not expensive, only 140 HKD a dozen, very cheap. And the people in Tasmania are very nice. There are electric scooters all around in Tasmania, you can use it to get around, but I didn't get to play this time. Next time there is a chance.

#Halloween2023 #OverseasTravel #Relaxation #FoodTour #Australia #hobart #seafood When you go to Tasmania, you can’t miss eating seafood. So this trip to Hobart booked a yacht to eat seafood. It was really enjoyable to enjoy and taste the seafood all the way against such a beautiful view. This seafood trip has a rich variety of seafood. Australian Black-rimmed Bacon - The kitchen sliced ​​it and sautéed it, seasoned with sauce and ginger for simple bacon freshness Oysters - Tasmanian oysters are really fresh, with a seawater flavor to go with it Freshly caught seaweed - really fresh Salmon fillet sashimi - I think I've had salmon fillet so many times and this time was really unforgettable because it tasted like eating toro Roasted salmon - it is served on top of rock salt and is a little salty Lobster - really fresh and sweet, the fried taste is good, but the tongs are cooked in a pot of water, are very fresh  In addition, all the drinks are available, it is really chill during these 4 and a half hours, and must be enjoyed when traveling abroad Although the price is expensive, it is worth the trip!

#Halloween2023 #travel abroad #trip #relaxation #australia #hobart Most people stay in service apartments when traveling to Australia, because they are cheap enough. But because I wanted to relax during the holidays, I booked a hotel to stay so I could relax. This time we stayed at the Movenpick Hotel, located in the city center, which was really convenient, 5 minutes from the pier and a supermarket nearby. The rooms are quite large, 300 feet, and the toilet is full of space. The bed was big enough and really comfortable. The hotel also has a free chocolate day from 3.30pm to 4.30pm daily with chocolate style food items to eat, although the quantity is small, but quite tasty. So if you go to Hobart, you might as well choose this one.

While driving through Tasmania, we got to see all the awesome views of beaches that are fantastic with waves. Although is early spring now, in Hobart we got to see some beautiful tulips. Up in Wellington hill we enjoy the awesome scenery and was so cold too. All the towns are so quite and peaceful with friendly people smiling and greets whoever they meet. Love the country 🤩🤩🥰🥰😍😍💕💕 1.

This hotel was great for a weekend staycation, especially its is within walking distance to Salamanca Saturday market! It located at the quiet part of the Hobart city but yet walking distance to all the attractions spot! Staff were super friendly and they really doing a great job maintaining the property, it’s clean and give you a young vibe! The bathroom was a real surprise with a fab rain shower and wall mounted shower, great for a hot shower after a day out! The restaurant bar was fun and modern and we do have our breakfast there, the variety is ok but food does taste good! Would definitely stay again next trip we come to Hobart. #staycation

Getting There - We caught the kunanyi/Mt Wellington Explorer Bus. Duration: 2 Hours (approx.) From AUD 35.00 / person Experience spectacular views over Hobart and beyond including explore the summit OR hop-on and hop-off along the way.

Tasmania is filled with many nature parks and hiking trails with many highly visited nature park with breathtaking waterfalls. You should head to one of the highly visited water falls called Horseshoe falls located within Mount Field at Mount Field TAS 7140, Australia. This hike will take you approximately 45mins to an hour and the entire loop is roughly about 2km if I'm not wrong. But this is a hike that you cannot miss as it will take you pass to other waterfalls, the Russell falls and the Lady Barron Falls. This hike is relatively easy but do make sure you wear good walking shoes as you can see the falls might make the floor wet and also my entire clothes was soaked. #bucketlistreboot #tasmania #tassie #hiking #mountfield #naturepark #naturalwonders #hiking #mustvisit #hike #waterfalls

📍Australia, Mt. Nelson Lookout If you are traveling to Tasmania, Australia, try climbing Mt. Nelson in Hobart! If you climb up here where the signal station is, you can take in the ocean and the beautiful sky in the distance! It is high in altitude, but you can drive to the top, so you can stop by without much burden☁️ If there are clouds floating in the clear sky, take an exciting jump shot on the mountain and leave a wonderful life photo💙 #Australia #AustraliaTravel #Tasmania

📍Australia, Richmond Bridge While traveling to Tasmania, a hidden gem of Australia, I visited the fairytale-like town of Richmond! I stopped by for a moment because I heard that it had the oldest bridge in Australia, but since I had to cross this small bridge to enter the town of Richmond, I was able to find it quickly and easily! This place, where you can easily meet geese, swans, and mallards on the small lawn next to the bridge, had a quiet and peaceful atmosphere that made it seem like Anne of Green Gables was running across the bridge🦆🦢 I felt like I was in Andersen's fairy tale the whole time I was walking around Richmond Bridge💙 #Australia #AustraliaTravel #Tasmania #Richmond

#musteat #foodie #cafe went to this cafe called abundance as it was actually quite highly raved on the internet. the nearest mrt station is redhill. it is just across the street hence its very convenient. it is a small little cafe with very limited seatings so would recommend to come during non peak hours or non peak days. the beef fried rice was really good. i loved the taste of it. it was delicious and seasoning was just great and enough. overall would recommend. the crispy fried chicken was also very tasty and delicious together with the hot and spicy dumplings. overall food was great and damage was about $40.

Hobart is a coastal city, and the accommodation closest to the seaside is the Elizabeth Harbour Hotel. The vast seaside scenery is extraordinary. The hotel is designed to look like a cruise ship, and the terrace of the room is like the deck on the cruise ship. Looking at the sea and sky, drinking and chatting, it is really a great enjoyment in life. 🏖 T42 Bar and Restaurant and the casual Fish Frenzy Restaurant are just downstairs, where you can enjoy Australian lobster and other seafood. 🦞🦀🦐🦑🦪 The floating Brooke Street Pier is just around the corner. It is very romantic to take a stroll after dinner and enjoy the night view. #Unbeatable Sea View#Overseas Travel

Very beautiful and scenic places in Hobart and Wineglass Bay in Tasmania and Milford Sound in New Zealand!  They are must-go vacation spots. The best time to visit Tasmania and New Zealand is from Sept to Nov, not too cold and not too hot.   #bucketlist

The Museum of Old and New Art in Hobart, Tasmania, displays a number of retro artworks, while the other side of the museum is filled with new technologies and modern installation art. The concept of taking visitors from ancient times to the present day is very unique. #bucketlist#tbt

Hobart Wharf is full of various boats. This is a good place to take a walk and relax. You can feel the sea breeze while looking at the crystal clear water. After a walk, it would be best to go to a nearby seafood restaurant to taste fresh seafood, or to take a rest in a leisurely cafe. #bucketlist #overseastravel #hobart #tasmania #bucketlist

In Hobart, we stayed at Hadley's Orient Hotel, a very classic hotel. We swam down to Rose Bay, walked down to the pier, and had delicious fish and chips at Fish Frenzy. The fish was super fresh. There was a building similar to a food court nearby, which had seafood plates, pizza, ice cream and other delicacies. We ate there again. Hobart’s days and nights are also very peaceful.

Before leaving Hobart, we went to the Mona Museum, which opens at 10:00 a.m. and is free for children. Some of the exhibits are very impressive, such as simulations of male and female sexual organs. After leaving the Museum, we went to Barilla Bay to eat oysters before boarding the plane. There was a Tasmania Devil on the inland fuselage, which was very cute. #bucketlist
