Best Things to do in Teneriffe

Teneriffe Brisbane

The historic riverside suburb of Teneriffe has been transformed from its industrial woolstore days a century ago to become of the coolest inner city neighbourhoods of Brisbane. Its heritage-listed woolstores have been converted into trendy apartments and the streets are home to cool bars, cafes, restaurants, an antique centre, parks, artisan bakery and a microbrewery while along the river is a heritage submarine walk (when submarines were stationed here during the Second World War).
