The River Torrens, back in central Adelaide, the main source of the city's water. The Adelaide Festival Centre is the white building on the left, where many of the city's myriad of festivals take place. Some of the world's most acclaimed festivals take place here, primarily the Adelaide Festival of Arts, which in turn has spawned the Adelaide Fringe (2nd largest in the world after Edinburgh), WOMADelaide, the huge world music event, and the world's largest literary festival: Adelaide Writer's Week. Little wonder the South Australia license plates say “South Australia – The Festival State.”
