Find out why you should visit this garden today!
Why visit it?
This park is very rich in European as well as Aboriginal history. It is also the ideal place for people who are interested in learning more about contemporary culture as well. It has a lot to offer in terms of displays, and is also a leading research, conservation and horticulture centre.
What is there to see?
There is a lot to be seen in the park. For instance, it is home to the Western Australian Botanic garden. This has a display of more than 3,000 species of plants that are unique to the state, and which you are unlikely to find in any other part of the world. In addition to that, since more than 60% of the park is designated as bush land, one can also have a chance to indulge in the biodiversity that it has to offer as well.
The park has a lot to offer in terms of views as well. Locations such as Swan river and the Darling Ranges offer a perfect opportunity to simply soak in the views and relax, or for photography. You can also get an excellent view of the Perth City skyline from the park as well.
What is there to do?
One of the most popular activities in the Kings Park Garden is the walk trail. This gives you an opportunity to come into contact with nature, and you might even come across a few small animals on the way as well. The walks are usually guided, so you need not worry about any harm befalling you. In addition to that, there are a number of play areas for kids in the park as well, so you don’t need to worry about bored kids. You can also pop over to one of the cafes for a quick bite or go shopping in one of the many gallery shops.
Getting there
The Kings Park and Botanic Garden is located in West Perth. It is a very short distance from the CBD, and parking is free for visitors. The park is easily accessible through public transport as well.
