In the early days of South Australia, it was a free immigration area, so it has a lot of immigrant towns. There is a German town in Hahndorf in Adelaide, the capital of South Australia. Although it is only a 30-minute drive from downtown Adelaide, the scenery of the German village of Handorf is not like Australia. It adds a touch of exoticism to South Australia. This contrast brings many surprises. 1838, a German captain Hahndorf discovered it and led a group of Prussians and East German immigrants to settle down and take root. In this way, the formation of the German village of Handorf has been more than one hundred and seventy years old. Today, it is not only the most famous town in the Adelaide Hills, but also the oldest German immigrant settlement in Australia. Despite the constant changes in time and space, Handdorf still retains its original features. Into the town, the bakery and sausage shop on the main street are filled with strong German flavor, and many of the buildings on the street still retain the style of a hundred years ago. The German style is everywhere.
