'''Adelaide''' is the capital city of [[South Australia]]. The layout of the city was designed by Colonel William Light, the colony's original surveyor. Adelaide's central district is surrounded by a ring of park lands and is divided by the Torrens River. It was named after the Queen consort of the British king, William IV. It is the only state capital to have been founded using free settlers - there were no convicts.[[File:Adelaide1.jpg|thumb|290px|Insurance office, 1879]]
