The City of Perth

A 6 minute walk to the bus, a 4 minute bus ride, a 20 min lovely train ride and I'm in the center of the city!

 City of Perth is about 1.2 million population city.  City of Perth is close to the ocean and on the beautful Swan River . It is a very new city and even London Court below is not really as old as it looks (100 years I think)  It is a very modern and clean city with many arts, restaurants, and excellent public transportation.  The city trains are fast and smooth.  The buses in the city limits are free.


 Tribute to a street performer.  There usually are buskers of some type in the Murray street Mall area.  (Think State Street times ten)

Nice city parks.
Bell tower.  Kind of like the UW carillon tower.

The city of Perth is prosperous due to the many mines in the area.
It is a growing city.  There are jobs for new comers in the mines.  Others come here for jobs related to the mines.  There are many large banks and lots of lawyers for example.


Giant metal kangaroo and me!
Lots of nice art.


Murray Street Mall.  Prices are less like Wisconsin and more like new York.
