Almost all major cities in Australia have a beautiful garden and clean. The main goal of course for the greening and lungs of the city. However, many activities that can be done there, ranging from exercise, rest breaks while enjoying food in the office and school activities, and gather with family and friends while enjoying a barbeque. The latter was very well liked Australia.
Moreover, there are facilities everywhere in the form of a barbecue stove that works just by inserting a coin a few bucks. Bring lunch with drinks, raw foods (meat and vegetables), and tableware, berlangsunglah barbeque.
One of the park which is visited by many Kings Park. Berluas beautiful garden of about 400 hectares is located on the western edge of Perth, not far from the Central Business District (CBD), aka the business center in Western Australia. The park is composed of lawn, botanic gardens, and natural herbs from the mountains of Eliza. Apart from being a major tourist visit in Perth, in this immense park also found State War Memorial, tennis court of The Royal Kings Park Tennis Club, and the reservoir (storage reservoirs). State War Memorial in writing all the names of the heroes of Western Australia who joined the Boer War, World War I and II, the Korean War, and in Vietnam.
The park was first opened August 10, 1895 was formerly known as Perth Park and was renamed in 1901 as a memorial to ride his throne of King Edward VIII as king of the British empire, as well as respect for the visit of George as Duke of Cornwall and Queen Mary to Perth. The daughter later gave the name of one main road that May Drive. While the Royal King's Park Tennis Club was founded in 1898 and is home Davis Cup race. Currently the field is composed of 28 field grass (grass court) and 3 hard courts (hard court)
Main roadside park that May Drive, Lovekin Drive, and the Marri Walk known as the Honour Avenue because of its banks planted with eucalypt tree (a type of acacia tree) and on each tree there is a plaque tribute to the heroes of World War I and II, which comes from Australia . On the plaque is written the name of a war hero, age at death, place of war, and representatives of families who planted these trees. Overall, there are 1100 trees along plakatnya.
The park is very spacious it was in the area elevation, so from there we can look at the beauty of Perth and the Swan River it. Clearly, every September and October, there are always organized exhibitions and performances Wildflower (wildflowers), the largest in Australia.
Before the Europeans came to Perth, Mount Eliza was known as Mooro Katta and Kaarta Gar-up by Nyoongar tribe (one of the Aborigines). In the southern region there is a drinking water source Kennedy Spring (Goonininup) needed Yellagonga clan. The existence of water sources that attract beer company Swan (Swan Brewery) to establish a business that is now a restaurant, art gallery, and area of residence of luxury.
What was unusual was the construction of Bali Memorial at Kings Park. The monument as a reminder of the death of 16 people who became victims of Western Australia Bali Bombing October 12, 2002. The monument looks simple, but actually formed from 2 axis. The first axis indicates the direction of the rising sun on the 12th October, and the second axis leads to the Australian flag flying in the distance, to the Swan River, and the Darling Ranges.
At the Kings Park Botanical garden area there are also 18 hectares, known as the Botanical Garden Western Australia with 2,000 species of plants typical of Western Australia. Garden was designed John Oldham, a landscape architect at the time, in preparation for the holding of the British Empire and Commonwealth Games in 1962.
There also are Lotterywest Federation walkway that has a bridge height and length so that when we pass through it as if walking through the trees while listening to the chirping of wild birds flying around it. There are also several groups of small parks, such as Acacia garden with a unique stairs because mounted mosaic patterned acacia plants, Banksia garden plants that are native to Australia, water garden, and others. There is an interesting building, the DNA tower. It was the two series of steps over a number of 110 as a picture of the nature of the DNA chain that carries the genes in living organisms.
Before leaving the Kings Park, Indonesian tourists are generally not satisfied if you do not go shopping or just wash the eyes at Aspects of Kings Park. There we can find a variety of accessories, clothing, household items, and souvenirs of the work of Australian artists. If the price, do not ask, surely enough to drain the pouch. In addition to its weak dollar compared to the Australian dollar, all goods sold are made by indigenous Australians.
Another garden can be enjoyed is Queens Park which is the English-style garden. The park was located in the Canning area, located 11 km from downtown Perth and is a frequent crossings of those who want to take short cuts because it is shorter in the two different sides of the road. In the park there is a replica of the statue of Peter Pan, which originally adorned the Kensington area of London.
Park was originally named Woodlupine. His name was later changed in 1911 because of the murder at the venue. Residents and local government felt the need to change the name of this park so that the incident did not bring a bad impression that it interferes with the development progress in the area. The name of Queens Park as a tribute to Queen Alexandra, consort of King Edward VII. In the garden there are palm trees and beautiful flowering shrubs with a pond that is very interesting, as well as a haven of birds. If there is a bit of bread crumbs, these birds will be happy to come around us.
Another park is also famous for Sterling Garden and Supreme Court Gardens. Two parks are located side by side together because it is not too broad, and was originally known as the Government Gardens, because it is located 100 meters west of Government House. It is located on the corner of St Georges Terrace and Barrack Street, west of Government House and to the north of the Supreme Court building. Alexander Forrest Statue made by Pietro Porcelli located at the entrance to Sterling Garden that was originally made of clay and made prints in Paris, printed with the wax, then made of bronze, and it was inaugurated by Walter James on August 28, 1903. From the park we could see The Swan Bells Tower as high as 82.5 meters which is the iconic city of Perth.
Another park that is Burswood Park is a relatively new park for the people of Perth. The park is located 3 km from the CBD and located on the banks of the Swan River for 40 years (starting in the mid 1940s) is a garbage disposal area, so the vegetation and bird life there to be disturbed. However, beginning in 1986 these areas gradually improved so that today approximately 40 varieties of birds and poultry have returned to come and stay.
Burswood Park is famous for never received an award as a beautiful garden, with barung-birds such as Australian Grebe uniquely Australian, the Australian pelican, Australian Shelduck, and much more. There are also tennis courts, a golf course with 18 holes and a very well-known is the casino that is open for 24 hours.
Anyone who has grown old can enter into it for free, and is the only place gambling is legal in Western Australia.
Another park I visit on the trip to Perth is Central Park. Before coming to the garden which I bayangankan is a spacious park in downtown like the square in Indonesia. But it turns out, the park is flanked by St George Teracce, Hay Street, and William Street was not as big as the other parks, because it was actually hidden among the buildings of skyscrapers in sekililingnya.
The front was a city bus stop. But after all, the place was quite comfortable for those who want to just get some fresh air after being tired at the air-conditioned room, opening lunch, or an ideal place for a date with someone.
The last garden I visited was Victoria Park. Park area of 17 hectares in the Northeast CBD is also located on the banks of the Swan River, and before European settlement, is an area of bushes are not maintained. From there we can see the beauty of the City of Perth, including the magnificent building at the Burswood Casino Burswood Park.
So many parks in Perth. So much mistaken if the city can be dubbed "the city of a thousand garden."
