"Feed the kangaroos, see the penguins being fed, gets photos with a koala, meet a wombat, possum, python and many more at the interactive meet & greet, play with the goats, join in the Farm Show (have you ever milked a cow before?!), and so much more!. There are about 2000 animals to meet and about 200 species to learn about, and it’s all included in the entry fee. Buggybuddys Review Caversham Wildlife Park Read more…"

"What child (or adult!) can resist the opportunity to hand-feeding a kangaroo, or cuddle up to a wombat?. Head to Caversham Wildlife Park here at Whiteman Park to meet many of Australia’s unique native animals, including koalas, wallabies, possums, Tasmanian devils and more!. Visit around the middle of the day to see the Farm Show or Wombat & Friends Show too."

"A serene and sprawling public space close to the waterfront, Esplanade Park is great for picnics, sunbathing, or a spin on the giant Skyview (Ferris) wheel. There are playgrounds for the kids, majestic Norfolk pines, and it’s close enough to the city that it makes a nice respite from the workday, with local workers and tourists alike enjoying a quiet moment in the park before returning to the real world."

"Wander toward the waterfront stopping at Esplanade Park on your way. This large green space separates the Fishing Boat Harbour from the city and provides an excellent spot to relax and enjoy a picnic, let the kids play around in the shaded playground area, or take a ride on the Skyview Ferris Wheel. The Skyview Ferris Wheel is an unmissable landmark of Fremantle."

"Would you believe this small planting trees initiative taken by Fremantle government in 1908 turned out to be a scenic park?. Yes, Esplanade Park’s first plant was planted in 1908. Right now the park has more the 100 mature Norfolk Island Pines."

"Get in touch with nature atRio Tinto’s Naturescape in Kings Park. The dedicated naturespace offers an incredibly engaging way for kids to experience and understand the Western Australian bush. Covering six hectares, it features the likes of large aerial walkways, a creek and waterhole for wading in, a cubby-building area, tunnels, rocks, climbing rocks and more."

"The Swan River foreshore at Matilda Bay - across the road from the University of Western Australia - is a popular spot for picnics and swimming. Parts of the grassed area can be hired for functions such as weddings, which is not surprising for such a pleasant setting. Matilda Bay and jetty"

"Who would have thought 9 shipping containers could become a hit on Instagram?. Well, they can and they have, thanks to local Fremantle artist Marcus Canning. In his artwork (which was commissioned by the City of Fremantle) these nine containers are custom-designed in eye-catching colours and formed into a striking rainbow structure."

"John Forrest National Park ticks all the boxes for an awesome family day out. It’s close to Perth, has lots of walk trails, plenty of picnic spots, wildlife, and now a brand-new nature play space!. The kids will love getting dirty, climbing, splashing and just being in nature."

"It’s tucked away and relatively unknown, and yet those in the know will happily swear by it as one of Perth’s best. The epic menu brings something for everyone, but it’s the Sichuan yabby hotpot, whole crispy fish and homestyle sizzling bean curd that have us crying out for more. Try the East Victoria Park venue for yourself and see whether it’s your jam – because it’s definitely ours."

"If you’ve had a special occasion in the last ten years – anniversary, birthday, folks are paying… chances are, you’ve hit up Nobu. This global, Robert De Niro-owned brand has made a name for itself in excellence, and its Perth outpost is no different. The opulent dining room and its Crown setting naturally lends itself to celebrations, while complementing its modern Japanese-South American fare."

"Of course no best Japanese restaurants in Perth list would be complete with the addition of Crown Perth’s Nobu. A longstanding resident at the casino complex, and part of a global chain that is easily one of the most recognisable for fine dining."

"We’re not short on great little sushi trains around Perth, and Sushi Wawa out by the IKEA building in Innaloo is one of the best. The train itself is constantly stocked with fresh Japanese goodness, heaps of tasty plates under $4.50, and their mains offerings are very reasonably priced too. 8A Sunray Dve, Innaloo"

"Japanese cuisine is world-famous with its equally popular noodle soup, Ramen. At Nao Ramen, they aim to be faithful to original and authentic flavor and give real Japanese ramen to patrons. To do so, they opt for homemade preparation – from broth to noodles, and even to chashu roast pork, everything in their ramen is home-made."

"For over 15 years, Nao has been Perth's go-to for ramen and gyoza. The four different types of noodles are made fresh daily and served with hearty broth and toppings, but the cold ramen with sesame sauce is the standout dish. The space is simple and service is efficient."

"Home to convict-built Government House and Town Hall. The City Center is also within walking distance to Kings Park & Botanic Gardens."

"Patsy Durack’s tranquil rose gardens surround Kareela, built in 1915 and used by Archbishop Clune as a holiday home during the 1920s. Patsy Durack grows hundreds of field rose bushes. Most of the rose bushes have their own individual plaques allowing visitors to identify those roses they would like in their own gardens."
