-====== Perth - The Most Isolated City In The World ======
+====== Perth ======
+==== One Of The Most Isolated Cities In The World ====
+The city of Perth in Australia is the most isolated city on the planet. Surrounded by an inaccessible desert, it is 322 kilometers away from the nearest city. [([[https://www.quora.com/I-ve-heard-that-Perth-is-the-most-isolated-city-in-the-world-Is-this-true-How-is-isolation-measured|Quora]])]
-The city of Perth in Australia is the most isolated city on the planet. Surrounded by an inaccessible desert, it is 322 kilometers away from the nearest city.
+==== Kings Park ====
+Kings Park is the most recognizable place in Perth - one of the largest parks in the world, located in the heart of the city. It is four hundred hectares in size. [([[https://www.westernaustralia.com/en/plan_your_trip/travelstories/pages/why_kings_park_is_the_king_of_all_parks.aspx|Western Australia]])]
+==== Quokka ====
+Quokkas are adorable kangaroo animals that have been making a dizzying career on Instagram. Small, looking like a perpetually smiling rat/kangaroo mix, the pets can be found easily on the fantastic Rottnest Island. Quokkas only live in Western Australia.

+==== Margaret River ====
+Some of the prettiest beaches in Australia are found in the Margaret River region, but the area is known primarily for its good wines. The somewhat Mediterranean climate creates great conditions for growing grapes. [([[https://www.forestrise.com.au/margaret-river-wineries/|Forest Rise]])]
+==== Fremantle ====
+Fremantle is a port town affiliated with Perth. It sits on the Swam River estuary to the ocean and, primarily, for this reason, was one of the first places settled in Western Australia, around 1830.[([[https://www.britannica.com/place/Fremantle|Britannica]])]
+==== Little Creatures ====
+Little Creatures is a local beer, now known throughout Australia and beyond. It started from a small brewery in Fremantle, and today the company processes millions of liters of this beverage. [([[https://littlecreatures.com.au/our-story/|Little Creatures]])]
+==== Alfred Cove ====
+The beautiful Swan River flows through Perth and you'll find plenty of popular parks and playgrounds along its shores. Instead of joining the crowds, take a stroll down the south bank to Alfred Cove. Countless boardwalks and viewpoints have been built on the muddy waterfront amidst the seagrass and are frequented by a variety of migratory bird species, the perfect place to observe and enjoy the peace and quiet. [([[https://beachsafe.org.au/wa/melville/alfred-cove|Beach Safe]])]
+==== Claisebrook Cove ====
+From Victoria Gardens to the eastern part of Perth, Claisebrook Cove is one of the most picturesque and, for now, least known neighborhoods. It has just undergone a major revitalization that has transformed the coast into a vibrant restaurant, cafe, cycling, and kayaking destination where you can cast your rod and fish. You can catch the CAT bus for free and get off at the last stop. [([[https://helloperth.com.au/directories/claisebrook-cove-east-perth/|Hello Perth]])]

+==== Secret Garden Cafe ====
+On the south side of town, Secret Garden Cafe's traditional wooden courtyard gives you the feeling of being in a peaceful oasis in the middle of the city. Step inside and direct your steps towards the garden, the meticulously decorated green paradise at the back offers the best tables. From breakfast to lunch to dinner, not to mention locally roasted coffee beans and Australian wine, there's no bad time to visit this place. [([[http://www.thesecretgardencafe.com.au/|The Secret Garden Cafe]])]
+==== Marmion Marine Park ====
+Western Australia's first marine park and one of the best dive sites in Perth. Marmion boasts shallow coral reefs, small islands, underwater caves, clear lagoons, and shipwrecks, all filled with the colors of the aquatic world. Humpback whales pass through the warm waters in May, September, and October during their annual migration. Take a walk along the stretched coastal strip between North Beach and Sorrento to avoid the tourists. [([[https://parks.dpaw.wa.gov.au/park/marmion|DPAW]])]
+==== Heirisson Island ====
+This island is located in the Swan River in the eastern part of Perth and is a natural paradise in the middle of the city. It's easy to get to as it's historically a crossroads point and an important place for the Noongar people. You'll also find a small population of resting kangaroos who don't mind people walking by. They can easily be seen hiding in the shade. [([[https://parks.dpaw.wa.gov.au/site/heirisson-island|Explore Parks]])]
+==== Sneaky Tony's ====
+Sneaky Tony's is a secret bar, reminiscent of the Prohibition era, hidden away in Northbridge which makes it a real 'hidden gem'. Even if you manage to find the entrance you still need the password to enjoy a menu full of rum-based cocktails. The password changes every weekend, and you can find it on the establishment's Facebook page. [([[https://www.facebook.com/sneakytonys/|Facebook]])]
+==== Mettam's Beach ====
+A great place to swim that is not as crowded as Miami Beach, a little north of the popular Trigg Beach. An offshore reef protects the beach and creates a natural rocky pool, and that means the water there is calm. Don't forget your snorkeling gear, the beach is part of the protected Marmion Marine Park, so the underwater life is rich and varied. [([[https://visitperth.com/see-and-do/beaches/mettams-pool|Visit Perth]])]
+==== Fremantle Prison Tunnels ====
+To see a completely different side of Perth, swap the sunny beaches and city center streets for the Fremantle Prison Tunnels. Put on your harness and enter the underground passages, using a series of ladders to travel back in time to discover Perth's rich history. The tunnels were dug by prisoners who sailed from Britain in the 19th century when labor was considered a form of punishment. [([[https://fremantleprison.com.au/tours/tunnels-tour/|Fremantle Prison]])]
+==== Lucky Chan’s Laundry and Noodle Bar ====
+Perth is home to a number of rooftop bars that are very popular with tourists, for which Northbridge is popular with locals. The menu is rich in noodle dishes, delicate baozi (steamed noodles typical of Chinese and Malaysian cuisine), and dumplings. The colorful urban decor gives the place a fresh feel and makes it unique. THIS is definitely the place in Perth for a delicious Asian meal. [([[https://www.luckychans.com.au/|Lucky Chans]])]

+==== Garden Island ====
+Not far off the coast of Rockingham is an unassuming island (10 km long and 1.5 km wide) that, though somewhat forgotten by history, offers quiet, scenic beaches for picnics and forests for hiking. There is a naval port in the south, but the northern part is open to tourists, easily accessible by road from the mainland. You can always rent a kayak or boat to get there at your own pace.
