About Perth Australia Perth is the state capital of Western Australia, and with more than 1.8 million, people, is the fourth largest city in Australia. Perth is a vibrant and modern city sitting between the Indian Ocean and the ancient Darling Ranges. Perth is the most remote mainland city on Earth, being closer to the Indonesian capital of Jakarta than it is to the Australian capital, Canberra, or the major cities of Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane. Perth summers are generally hot and dry, with February generally being the hottest month of the year, and winters are cool and moist, though winter rainfall has been declining in recent years. Perth is a relatively green city, with an abundance of parks and tree-lined boulevards and many of the coastal suburbs along the Indian Ocean enjoy unbroken stretches of white sandy beaches. The population comprising Perth is a mix of Croatian, British, Italian, Dutch and Greek migrants and more recently those from South East Asia, Southern Africa, and New Zealand. The centre of Perth is located on the northern bank of the Swan River and is roughly divided into the Central Business District, the retail district with the Hay and Murray Street Malls and the Northbridge entertainment precinct. Colourful Northbridge is the main entertainment area in Perth with nightclubs, pubs, cafes and offering an eclectic mix of cultures, cuisines and eateries. Northbridge is also the home of the Art Gallery of Western Australia, the WA Museum and the State Reference Library plus a number of innovative arts venues, theatres, and galleries. The inner city of Perth bustles with activity and offers souvenir shopping, theatre productions, and dining choices from 5-star restaurants to casual alfresco dining along the Swan River. Field hockey is hugely popular in Perth and there are many field hockey clubs for children, men, women and veterans over 40 year of age. Perth is home to the West Australian Symphony Orchestra which performs a regular programme of orchestral music, usually from its base at the Perth Concert Hall. The Perth Mint is the oldest still-operating mint in Australia. Rottnest Island off the coast of Perth is a nature reserve and is a significant attraction for tourists who come to see the Quokkas, a unique little marsupial that runs wild on the island. The historical port city of Fremantle is a short train ride from Perth and is home to many attractions including the Fremantle Prison, the Round House, the Western Australian and the Maritime Museum. The Fremantle Markets with their numerous arts and crafts stores are popular with shoppers from Perth and have something to suit all tastes and budgets. |
