I took this photo at the
fountain in front of the Adelaide Arcade in Rundle Mall, Adelaide City.

"
Uniquely Rundle Mall" as what its slogan says... by
closing the Rundle St. to traffic between King William and Pulteney streets, this mall was
opened in September 1976 as the first pedestrian mall in Australia. In short, it's a street turned into a mall!
Just like other malls, Rundle Mall isn't only for shopping but for dining and entertainment, as well. This commercial complex is also a venue for photography, street protests, sports team's celebrations and parades, fraternal organizational initiations (eg. men and women giving free hugs) and busking.

Now, can you blame me if Rundle Mall is my favourite hang out in town?
