A ustralia is a cracking place to visit. With a country this big, there are so many places to visit, so many interesting animals,  plants  and other wildlife native to Australia to see, and fascinating history and iconic beaches to visit, to name a few. However, the smaller towns are just as interesting and brimming with culture, such as  Hahndorf , a small town in the South of Australia. This piece will discuss just a small handful of the amazing places that can be visited and activities that can be done during a stay here.
