Called Mpwante (only them know how to pronounce..) from its traditional custodians, the population of Arrernte, and located only 200 kilometers south of the geographical center of Australia, the city of Alice Springs was built as a repeater along the Overland Telegraph Line . The introduction of camels, sheep farming and the discovery of alluvial gold, combined with the protected position of the city, have created an identity like no other. An obliged point of start for the Exploration of the Red Centre of Australia.
