Top Things to do in East Perth
What to do and see in East Perth, Western Australia: The Best Nature & Parks
Perched on the banks of the wide Swan River, between the Indian Ocean and the sands of the Nullarbor Desert, Perth is one of the world's most isolated cities, yet still boasts an active beach scene and smokin’ nightlife. Family-friendly Cottesloe is brimming with swimmers, surfers and snorkelers. Head north to Scarborough for a spirited beachside club scene. Coo at cute marsupials on ferry-accessible Rottnest Island, and don’t miss the views from King's Park and Botanic Gardens.

This is not so much a review as a comment to correct some misinformation I noted from looking at some of the reviews, particularly with respect to the location of the Supreme Court Gardens, and Stirling Gardens. The Supreme Court building sits in the middle of the Supreme Court Gardens (to the South of the Court and riverside) and Stirling Gardens which is to the north of the Court. Stirling Gardens are in fact on the corner of Barrack Street and St George's Terrace (NOT Adelaide Terrace as some say and as appears in the above description. I don't know how that gets corrected). Supreme Court Gardens are bounded by Barrack Street, Riverside Drive and Governors Avenue. Don't go looking for Adelaide Terrace as it is some distance down the road to the east of Barrack Street. If you visit either garden it is just a short walk to the other. Cross Barrack Street and you are in the Elizabeth Quay precinct, and to the south of the gardens is Barrack Square where you will also find the Bell Tower. There are a number of places to eat at Barrack Square and Elizabeth Quay. On a fine day both gardens are worth visiting, and it is nice to just sit a while and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. I love the massive Moreton Bay Fig trees in both gardens. There is an enormous specimen near the Perth City Council building in Stirling Gardens and several other large trees down Barrack Street and behind the Court in the Supreme Court Gardens.

This park is one of the examples of great landscaping and perfect maintenance. Decent playground, picnic places, shared pedestrian/ bicycle road along Swan river, and quite unusual metal sculptures.

Harold Boas (1883-1980) was an architect and town planner, who left the city of Perth a better place than he found it. Among the many structures he designed is the Nedlands Park Hotel, better known to generations of UWA students as Steve's. Boas served on the Perth City Council, and was influential in planning the city's expansion.Boas was prominent in the Jewish community. He was a founder and life member of the Temple David. These pleasant garden,s at the corner of Welllington St and Colin St, are a fitting memorial to a man who gave much to his city. The gardens are popular for weddings

Perth's answer to Central Park - a beautiful expanse of green overlooking the glorious Swan River. Just one of the many natural beauties that make Perth Australia's best capital city (I've visited them all except Darwin). Langley Park makes you forget you're in a CBD. Our hotel (Pan Pacific) is right next to the park which is a quick stroll down to all the action at Barrack Jetty and Elizabeth Quay.
