The article says, “Find surf, sand dunes, and Art Deco architecture in Adelaide, the capital of South Australia. In fact, you can experience all three, as well as Victorian architecture at Semaphore Beach, just 9 miles from the city center. Beyond the beach, Adelaide has rolling hills lush with high-quality grapes, making it the country’s wine capital. When not sipping an Australian cab, nature lovers can spot koalas and kangaroos on a hike in the Adelaide Hills.”

Apart from getting a lot of attention around the world the article was promoted locally by the SA government at their ‘We Are SA’ site.
