Many people think of Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane when they think of Australian cities, but there are many other cities worth visiting in Australia.
In this post, I would like to introduce Perth, Adelaide and Cairns.
Perth
Perth is the capital city of the state of Western Australia and is located on the western coast of Australia. It is known for its beautiful beaches, sunny weather, and vibrant city lifestyle.
The city is the fourth largest city after Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane with a population of about 2million.
Major attractions of Perth
1. Swan river
It is a place that can be called a symbol of Perth. Like the name of the river "Swan", you can meet black swans here.
Around the Swan river, Perth's main tourist attractions such as King's Park, Botanic Garden, and Bell tower are gathered. In particular, it is a place where you can enjoy the atmosphere of Perth while walking along the river with a well-developed promenade.
2. King's park
King's park has a total area of 4 million square meters, making it one of the largest urban parks in the world. In the botanical garden in Kings park, you can see more than 3,000 types of plants, and a Wildflower Festival in held every September.
It is a park where you can overlook the panoramic view of downtown Perth and the Swan River because the ground is relatively high.
3. Wave rock
This is a place you can go on a day trip from Perth. and where you can feel the magnificence of nature thanks to the appearance of granite rocks that look as if waves are forming a wall.
The lake magic swimming pond, a salt pool with beautiful colors, is also nearby, so if you have time, it's good to visit it together. You can experience your body floating like the Dead Sea in Israel.
Adelaide
Adelaide is a city in South Australia, located on the southern coast of the Australian continent. It is the capital city of the state of South Australia and is known for its unique layout, beautiful parks, and vibrant cultural scene.
What is unique about Adelaide is that it is a planned city developed for free immigration.
Australia's history and major cities are distinct from those that usually began as exiles.
Major attractions of Adelaide
1. Adelaide Central Market
It is a market with a history of 150 years.
It is a tourist attraction in Adelaide that is deserving of name and reality enough to find 9 million tourists every year.
There are more than 70 shops, selling everything from fruits and vegetables commonly found in markets to simple snacks and handicrafts by artisans. There are also cafes and restaurants, so you can take care of sightseeing and meals at once.
Please note that we are closed on Sundays and Mondays.
2. Port Willunga beach
It can be reached in about 50 minutes by car from Adelaide.
It is a beach located on the Floriu Peninsula full of Mediterranean atmosphere. It was previously used as a pier. All related facilities have been demolished, and traces of it can only be inferred from the long steel bars remaining in the sea.
The sunset is particularly beautiful, and the sunset and the iron bars create a wonderful harmony.
Star of Greece, a restaurant located on a cliff overlooking Willunga Beach, is famous. It is said that the name of the restaurant comes from the name of a cargo ship that sank in front of the beach.
3. Barossa Valley
It is the largest and most famous wine region in Australia. It has more than 150 vineyards and more than 90 cellars where you can taste wine. It is home to the unique Barossa Shiraz, as well as the luxurious and popular varieties Penfolds Grange and Henschke Hill of Grace.
Every year, the Barossa Vintage Festival is held to enjoy the wine, food, culture and art of the Barossa region.
Cairns
Cairns is a small city with a population of about 150,000.
However, it has the world's largest coral reef, the Great Barrier Reef, and is full of various water activities, making it the best city to enjoy outdoor activities.
Cairns is a port city originally built in 1876 to transport miners working in gold mines and mined gold during the gold rush. Cairns was named after William Wellington Cairns, who was the Governor of Queensland at the time.
Major attractions of Cairns
1. Great Barrier reef
It is the best attraction in Cairns that needs no words. It is a World Heritage Site selected by UNESCO and is the largest natural structure on Earth visible from space. You can see various marine life.
2. Daintree National Park
It is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
It is the oldest of the tropical rainforests and is a world-class nature reserve with about 16,000 wild animals. It is said that the scenery of the dense forest became the motif of the movie Avatar.
There are various courses where you can see the wildlife, and you can also experience various experiences such as jungle surfing, crocodile watching cruise, and night tour, if you pay for it.
3. Esplanade Lagoon
It is an artificial swimming pool that can be found in the middle of downtown Cairns. It has a sandy beach and offers health classes such as beach volleyball, Pilates, yoga, and Zumba every day of the week. Both pool use and class participation are free.
Popular cities are good, but how about visiting a little unfamiliar city?
Because you don't know it well, you can get an unexpected impression.
