Perth City Shopping Point 

There are many stores and shopping malls in Perth's extensive retail area, tourists from all over the world, and especially visitors from Asia like to shop in Perth because shopping here is similar to shopping in Asia. Again, there was a pedestrian street in every major city of the Commonwealth, and Perth came directly to see Murray Street (Murray Street Mall), and then Hayey Walking Street (Hay Street Mall),. The traffic in both shopping streets is very convenient.

In addition, the ancient King's Street (King Street) and Forrest Mall (Forrest Place) are two great shopping spots. These are easy places to find department stores, cheap stores, clothing stores, souvenir shops and duty-free stores.

Hay Street Mall's more distinctive feature is that the London Street (London Court). London Court, which connects St Georges Terrace, was built in 1937. The houses and shops on both sides of the street are built in accordance with 19th-century British architectural patterns, with strong British characteristics. London Court is now Perth's well-known high street, decorated with fashion and full of goods.

Perth downtown attractions 

Swan clock tower (The Bell Tower)

Located across the street from wharf, the swan tower has become a tourist hotspot and a new landmark in Perth, with the tower's left and right wing like a pair of swan wings. The swan tower is located across the street from wharf, and every once in a while there is a pleasant bell. The tower features a collection of 18 clocks from all over the United Kingdom. It plays different bells at specific times and festivals, and with the exception of Wednesday and Friday, the museum will hold a bell-ringing ceremony at 12: 00-13: 00, which will be held at 12: 00-13: 00, with the exception of Wednesday and Friday, when it plays different bells at certain times and festivals. If you are interested, you may want to listen, or you can experience the ringing of the bell for yourself. Climb to the top of the swan tower and look, the Perth city view by the river will be 360-degree view of your eyes.

Elizabeth wharf (Elizabeth Quay)

Elizabeth wharf is a waterfront leisure wharf project that Perth has only recently excavated. Elizabeth wharf's design rebuilds the historic link between the city and the Swan River, creating an entrance that brings water back to the city. Large entrances are surrounded by a layered corridor that provides a wide variety of urban divisions, allowing different groups to engage in a variety of activities, including recreation, dining, recreation and leisure areas.

On the side is Elizabeth Quay train Station, a half-hour ride from train to Joondalup.Lakeside Joondalup, Perth's largest shopping mall, and the Edith Cowan University (ECU) Joondalup Campus (campus of the University of Idrisovan).

The ferry from Barak Street wharf Barrack Street Jetty to South Perth Mends St Jetty has moved into Elizabeth Quay, the wharf in the lower-left corner of the image above, which is now the new ferry wharf.

In the honeycomb answer, someone asked, "excuse me, buzzing to Perth. I hear there's no business outside 5: 00 p. M. for Perth, so what's your entertainment at night?" At that time I answered his answer: Perth doesn't usually have much activity at night, North Bridge will be more people, because bars, restaurants, Chinatown are in that part of the place. Another place where people may be more likely is why Elizabeth Quay, uses the word possible, because there is a music festival in Perth, a food festival, and so on, all kinds of small festivals or activities will be held here. Then basically the wharf area will be crowded by that time. Besides, the downtown pedestrian streets are very busy every Friday night, but it's all happened to me, is it not normal, I really don't know. Because I really caught up with a food festival and a pedestrian Friday.

Barak Street wharf (Barrack Street Jetty) to South Perth (Mends St Jetty): 20 minutes or 30 minutes, travel: 7 minutes. This is the only ferry line in the Perth bus system.

Some of the anachronism in the image above is that the ferry wharf on Barak Street has moved into Elizabeth Quay, and the wharf on the left of the third upward figure is now the new ferry wharf.

Built in 1892, Freeman was the mouth of the Swan River, a satellite city and an important port in Perth, and a historic city. Freeman Art Center, Maritime Museum and Round House are worth visiting, including local bazaars and fishing boat ports. The best way to travel locally is to sit down on the South Avenue coffee aisle, sit down in an open-air coffee seat and enjoy the local town and the performance of street artists.

Western Australia Maritime Museum (Western Australian Maritime Museum)

The first stop under train is the Western Australia Maritime Museum. The Western Australia Maritime Museum, which used to store food and clothing for prisoners and soldiers, was transformed to display a wide range of marine-related items and materials, including various parts and stones found after the shipwreck. Coins and other valuables, as well as aboriginal Australian boat and so on. This is one of the few fee-paying museums in Australia.

Facing the sea, the museum sits in a spectacular building designed by a well-known architect at the western port of downtown and is a fascinating experience in exploring the relationship between Western Australia and the sea. There's the famous winged keel yacht Australia II, Indonesian fishing boats used by Kimberley's natives, pearl-picking boats once used in Bloom, and a submarine, the Hmasovens. Served in the Royal Australian Navy. And the Hamasovens submarine is the ultimate purpose of my visit to the Maritime Museum. This is for money.

Round house (The Roundhouse)

Designed by Henry Levi Henry Reveley, a 12-sided, multi-angled, ancient building originally used for prison purposes, the number of prisoners incarcerated is relatively small, at only eight. In the corner behind the round house, which used to be the harbour signal station, the black ball on the high pole fell off at 1: 00 a. M. every day, and it was still offered to tourists when they reported to nearby ships.

At the top of the round house you can see fisherman wharf, and fishing boats bring in all kinds of fresh catch. The seaside's wharf showcases a glamorous view of the Indian ocean, with fishing boats, cruise boats and restaurants lined up in the harbour. This is not only the paradise of tourists, but also the paradise of seabirds, with a small piece of bread can attract a large flock of seabirds, flying in front of the wind. The local Italian food is very famous, we have tasted the local famous fish steak and French fries, plenty of visitors to experience the Australian luxury, attractive delicious and let us a little overjoyed.

Ferimantel old prison, (Fremantle Prison)

Freeman prison, one of the oldest buildings in Freeman, has been used as a prison for 136 years and was discontinued in the 1990s because of security concerns. The rest of the prison still had its original integrity, the dark cells, the narrow and terrifying cells, and the iron window years of more than 100 years.

Between 1850 and 1860, the British government transported cheap prisoners from the United Kingdom to build bridges and build ports and public works in the colonies of Western Australia. The Freeman prison, (Fremantle Prison), was built by these prisoners. Built on hills and covering an area of 14 hectares, the building used to be a heavily guarded prison, and on the walls of the cells, many prisoners could be seen creating dark, free paintings to vent their emotions. If you want to train courage, you can also participate in the evening candlelight guide, holding a flashlight, relying on a faint light, visit the twisted first ruins, both dangerous and exciting.

Freeman Market (Fremantle Markets)

In addition, the Freeman market, (Fremantle Markets), which was founded in 1897, has been open every Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and more than 100 years ago. There are more than 150 small shops and stalls, selling a variety of handicrafts, paintings and souvenirs, as well as health products and food. To learn more about the lives and interests of the locals, or to buy souvenirs, I think visiting here should be one of the options.
