About Adelaide
Adelaide is a city with just over one-million people, centrally located around the banks of the River Torrens. It is well-planned city, laid out on a square mile grid, with wide streets surrounded by a green belt of parklands. For visitors this means that Adelaide is an easy city to get around. The Mediterranean climate encourages a relaxed lifestyle, with plenty of opportunity to enjoy outdoor cafes, restaurants, fine food and great wine. A long expanse of sandy beaches is less than thirty minutes from the city.
