    Definitely worth it as the place was the highlight of our trip! The "zoo" was well-structured where you get shows, interactions with the animals and the usual enclosures. The ticket includes phototaking with koalas (without you holding the animals).

    Whiteman Park in Perth is a large botanical garden with a very wide lawn. It is a good place for Perth people to make friends on a daily basis. The scattered trees on the lawn are like huge parasols, which are particularly beautiful and unique. It has a lonely and romantic beauty and is a good place for taking pictures.

    The Swan Bell Tower is a bell tower located in the heart of Perth, Australia, and is one of Perth's iconic landmarks. Built to commemorate Western Australia's 150th anniversary, it officially opened to the public in 2009. Visiting the Swan Bell Tower, you can take an elevator to the top of the tower (its six floors), where you can enjoy breathtaking views of the entire Perth city, including Fremantle Harbour, Kings Park, and the Swan River. On a clear day, you can even see the Swan Mountains in the distance. Inside the bell tower is a small museum showcasing the history and culture of Perth and Western Australia. You can learn about the construction of the bell tower and details of Western Australia's 150th anniversary celebrations. Overall, a visit to the Swan Bell Tower is a great way to learn about the history and culture of Perth and Western Australia, while also offering a stunning view of the city.

    The beach is beautiful, the infrastructure is very complete, and you can watch the sunset at night. The UV coefficient is very high, remember to use physical sunscreen. It is recommended to stay in a hotel by the sea, especially an apartment hotel, and walk out to the WWS supermarket to buy something to cook for yourself. Don't be too fragrant! You can choose the time to play by yourself. If you just want to relax, it's okay to lie down for a morning.

    There are no prisoners in Fremantle Prison in Western Australia, and it has been preserved for tourists to visit. Today, the prison still retains its original intact appearance. A guided tour will take you from the outside to the outside, including the interior of the prison, kitchen, toilets, public bathrooms, chapel, dark solitary cell, and narrow and terrifying prison cell. There are also introductions to the torture instruments of the time, recreating the life behind bars at that time. The admission fee includes a guided tour, which is only available in English and takes about an hour. The official website has alternative itineraries, such as nighttime ghost story tours, to challenge the brave

    King's Park in the city center is also a good place to enjoy the city landscape. The surrounding scenery is very beautiful and it is very comfortable to walk around. There are also complete restaurants and small gift shops in the park. It is a good attraction and worth a visit!

    The aquarium is small but had fun there. Took the Glass Bottom Boat and saw many sea creatures close-up. Had the opportunity to feed them and the kids enjoyed the entire trip to AQWA. Love the automated underwater tunnel where we get to see many different species and also had the chance of seeing the divers feeding the sea creatures. On top of that, there are also areas where we can touch some of the sea creatures such as starfish and even little sharks. last but not least thanks to the staff at the AQWA. All of them were very friendly and gave us a good introduction of the aquarium and the sea creatures they have. Awesome!
