When you are holidaying in Australia this should be your starting place. The city has shopping districts where you can do your whole shopping before going back home. Pitt Street Mall would be the best place to shop since it is mainly a pedestrian area and home to many chain stores that are all within a walking distance hence making it more convenient for shopping.

It will not be a difficult task to find a nice place to do your holiday shopping and King Street should be the place to start with before you even think of going out to other places. Here you will find shops full of clothes both foreign and locally designed. In the strip between Murray Street and Hay Street you will find numerous shops such as Kookai, Gucci and many others. If you are looking for cheaper shopping you can go down to the harbour which is a home of factories.
Rundle mall, Adelaide
If that name Adelaide sounds strange to you, don’t worry it is the capital of South Australia. It is a pedestrianized street with more than six hundred shops and you will find almost everything in this place. There are many indigenous retailers found here including Myer centre and Woolworths. Apart from the larger store you can also find small stores which sell speciality products.

It is my hope that you will choose to shop in these places when holidaying in Australia.
