tourists to explore so we are bringing some of the best of what Perth has to
offer to you right here.
Kings Park & Gardens - Fraser Ave Perth
Kings Park in Perth is made up of 400 hectares of parkland and gardens

The Swan Bells - Barrack Square Perth
The Swan Bell Tower was opened in Perth in December 2000 and has since
been a popular attraction for Perth visitors. It comprises a green glass
spire surrounded by copper 'sails', and is home to 18 bells making this the
largest change ringing instrument in the world. The bells came from the
Parish of St Martin in the Field of London, and were given to the City of
Perth as a gift to celebrate the Australian Bicentennial.
The Old Mill - Mill Point Road, South Perth
Built in 1835, the Old Mill in Perth is one of the city's oldest historic
landmarks. Quietly nestled between the freeway and the Swan River, you could
easily pass by without even noticing, however once you pass through the
gates, it is like being tranported to another era when Perth was just
emerging as a colony. Visit the Old Mill and take a step back in time.
Perth Zoo - Labouchere Rd, South Perth
A visit to Perth would not be complete without a day at the Perth Zoo. A
great day for the whole family, you will be treated to a close up look of
Australian wildlife, animals from the African Savannah, and the Asian
Rainforest, all in natural settings. You can also enjoy a picnic on the lawn
or a meal or snack from the Perth Zoo's cafe.
