Perth
Perth, the capital of Western Australia, is situated along the Swan River where it meets the Indian Ocean. It's the fourth largest city in Australia, home to over 2.3 million people. Perth's history dates back to 1829, with its growth accelerated by the gold rush in the late 19th century. Highlights include St George's Cathedral. The Mediterranean climate brings hot summers and mild winters, making spring and autumn the ideal times to visit, when temperatures are more pleasant.
