Parks & Nature
Perth's version of Central Park, it is huge and there is lots to explore but for the iconic spots head to Fraser Ave for views of the river and city (day and night views are spectacular). Further down there's a memorial to fallen ANZAC heroes as well as lovely gardens and a mini treetop walk (just follow the many signs) Jacob's Ladder is another spot for fitness freaks to run up. As with all touristy spots please be aware of your surroundings and valuables.
