This is the centrepiece of the casino in Adelaide; originally the waiting area of the railway station. The floor is made of marble imported from Europe and the area features four original telephone booths and a replica of the station clock. Above the hall is a twelve metre dome; supported by Corinthian columns.

Did you gamble some dollars, Gordon?
Donna - Fortunately I did not have to lie on my back to take the photo (although that might have been fun), because I have a swivel view screen on my camera.
Alice - not on that visit! You are not allowed in the gambling areas with a camera. In fact, I needed permission to take photos in the Marble Hall.
Wow...these are lovely and I admire your fortitude in getting these pictures!!!
Nice design and lovely photos. Sorry for not visiting but I am back from my vacation in South Korea. Have a nice weekend. :)
lovely shots of a stunning building. Why so empty, where are the people?
Sam - it is the just the foyer of the Casino; people just walk through. The gaming rooms are to the left and right. There was a steady flow of people walking through and I waited until it was clear to take the photo to avoid blurring.
