| Perth Travel Guide Edit This The best resource for sights, hotels, restaurants, bars, what to do and see inside Internet Station inside Internet Station Kiki Perth is the capital of Western Australia, which is situated along the banks of the Swan River. The river twists through the city and ends at the port of Fremantle where you can enjoy a coffee on the ' Cappuccino ' strip, go down to the harbour to watch the boats come in, or enjoy the nightlife. Many day trips can be taken from Perth. As the Indian Ocean borders the Western Australian coastline, one may take a ferry to Rottnest Island to see Quokka's. These little mammals were mistaken by Dutch explorers as giant rats. An absolute must is to visit King's Park, where you can overlook the hustle and bustle of the city amidst the calm of the Australian bush. Perth is a wonderful place for animal lovers. In addition to the small but charming Perth Zoo, a hands on experience is Caversham Wildlife Park, where one can have a one-on-one experience with a variety of birds, kangaroos, koalas, or a number of other animals who roam free in large enclosures which permit visitors to enter, pick up a handful of free food, and feed the animals. Great food and drink can be found in and around Perth. 20 minutes away from Perth city is the Swan Valley. The Swan Valley is one of two major wine regions in Western Australia. Nearby the Swan Valley is a restaurant where one can find pizza created by the 2005 winner of the America's Plate, an international competition to determine the world's best gourmet pizza maker. Perth is clean and beautiful, but by far, its best attraction is the great weather and it's beautiful beaches. It has one of the bluest skies you will ever see. Perth is the gateway to the rest of Western Australia, which ranges from the rugged Kimberley region in the far north of the state, through the vast Pilbara region to the wheat growing areas of the midlands and on to the forests and temperate farmlands of the South West of the state. You can trek the outback, fish for marlin, swim with whales, enjoy some of the best surfing in the world, prospect for gold at Kalgoorlie and explore the huge forests, plus participate in many other activities around the state.

Perth è la capitale dello stato australiano dell'Australia Occidentale.
Perth di notte
[modifica] GeografiaSi estende lungo i fiumi Swan e Canning, tra l'Oceano Indiano a ovest e le antiche Darling Ranges a est. La bellezza della città è accresciuta dalle spiagge sull'Oceano Indiano, dai rifugi sulla zona collinare, dalla romantica Fremantle, dalla cosmopolita Subiaco e dagli esclusivi e tranquilli quartieri periferici che contornano il fiume Swan. L'area metropolitana di Perth conta circa 1,5 milioni di abitanti, che la rendono la quarta città dell'Australia.
[modifica] StoriaIl luogo su cui sorge oggi Perth è stato occupato per migliaia di anni da gruppi della tribù Nyoongar. Di essi, e dei loro antenati, si hanno tracce risalenti a circa 40.000 anni fa . Nel dicembre del 1696 tre navi della flotta comandata da Willem de Vlamingh - il Nijptangh, il Geelvinck e l'Het Weseltje - ancorarono al largo di Rottnest Island. Il 5 gennaio 1697 un gruppo ben armato sbarcò nei pressi dell'attuale Cottesloe Beach e marciò verso est in direzione del fiume Swan vicino a Freshwater Bay. Quindi cercò di avvicinarsi ad alcuni Nyoongar per chiedere loro del destino dei sopravvissuti della Ridderschap van Hollant dispersa nel 1694, ma senza successo. Alla fine costoro navigarono verso nord, non prima che de Vlamingh avesse dato il nome Swan al fiume. Perth fu fondata nel 1829 come colonia sul fiume Swan, ma crebbe molto lentamente fino al 1850, quando i galeotti furono portati qui per sopperire alla carenza di manodopera. Molti dei bei palazzi di Perth, quali la Government House e la Perth Town Hall, furono costruiti grazie al lavoro dei condannati. Nonostante ciò lo sviluppo di Perth fu inferiore a quello delle altre città dell'est, fino a che la scoperta dell'oro negli anni 90 dell'Ottocento non fece aumentare la popolazione di quattro volte in un decennio, dando inizio al boom edilizio. La ricchezza di minerali della Australia Occidentale ha senza dubbio contribuito alla crescita di Perth, e intorno al 1980 la città incarnò l'ossessione del guadagno veloce di quel decennio. Un gruppo di imprenditori promosse un'immagine di Perth come di un luogo dove chiunque poteva diventare milionario. Clamorosa fu la caduta in disgrazia di Alan Bond, il magnate della birra che divenne famoso per la vittoria a sorpresa della barca da lui finanziata, Australia II, all'America's Cup del 1983. Gli scandali politici e sindacali che hanno fatto tremare la città in anni recenti si sono aggiunti alla cattiva fama di Perth. Negli anni '90, il governo liberale di Richard Court ha tenuto a lungo il potere e ha accompagnato la capitale dell'Australia occidentale ad un boom edilizio simile a quello di altre città australiane.
