Adelaide lies along the eastern shores of Gulf St Vincent, where the Adelaide Plains rise towards the foothills of the Mount Lofty Ranges. Founded as a planned colonial capital in 1836, its central grid was laid out by surveyor Colonel William Light and remains encircled by the Adelaide Park Lands. The city stands on Kaurna Country, whose First Nations heritage is integral to the region’s identity. Adelaide Central Market, trading since 1869, is a longstanding focus for produce and the city’s diverse food culture.
