Barossa Valley is very well known for its wineries and beautiful countryside.

The Barossa Valley was originally settled by German immigrants, refugees from persecution, and the region retains much of its original German culture. In addition to the wines, visitors can enjoy distinctly German foods and experience other facets of German culture. As one of the oldest settled areas in South Australia, it has many beautiful old stone Lutheran churches and other buildings.
