Perth is the capital city of Western Australia and is the most isolated capital city of over 1,000,000 people in the world.
Perth sprawls along a flat coastal plain, centred along the Swan River and bounded by the Darling Scarp to the east and the Indian Ocean coastline in the west. Perth has a population of around 1.6 million (2009), making it the fourth largest city in Australia. The many uncrowded beaches along the Perth coastline define the lifestyle: Perth is laid-back, quiet and safe.
See in Perth, Western Australia
=====================
There is plenty to see in the city centre within wandering distance or on a free CAT bus. Hidden among the sprawl of the surrounding and metropolitan area are a few worthwhile attractions usually less than an hour away by car, or a bit longer on public transport.
Outside of the metropolitan area are some unspoilt national parks, unpopulated coastline and other interesting locations.
Kangaroos
-------------------
There is a designated area in the zoo for kangaroos where they can wander on visitors' paths and the animals are used to people so you can see them very close.
To see semi-wild kangaroos visit the Pinnaroo Valley Memorial Park (a cemetery, but not European style) [10] - it's a walking distance from Whitfords Transperth Train/Metro Station - just cross the highway, the highway exit and look for the entrance on the left. As there is plenty of space for them you may see them not only eating but also hopping.
Other sports Other professional sports have a presence in Perth:
Perth Glory –
Western Warriors –
Western Force – Rugby union team in the Super 15, involving teams from Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa. Season runs from February to late May. Western Force play at NIB Stadium.
Perth Wildcats – Play in the National Basketball League.
Perth Heat - Play in the Australian Baseball League
Do in Perth, Western Australia
======================
Swim. Perth boasts some of the country's best beaches, which are ideal for swimming during the warmer months. Sunscreen is essential and insect repellent may come in handy during the evening. As the beaches are on the open ocean it is strongly advised that you only 'swim between the flags' at patrolled beaches. Probably the easiest beach to get to by public transport is Scarborough beach, which can be accessed by catching the Clarkson line from platform 1 at either Perth Underground or Esplanade stations, getting off at Glendalough station before catching the 400 bus. Alternatively, you can catch the 400 from the Wellington St bus station which is located down the far end of the central station - from any of its platforms, head west to the concourse, turn left and then head down the ramp. Cottesloe Beach, one of Perth's most famous, and a favourite among locals and tourists alike, it even easier to access by public transport. Take the Fremantle line to Cottesloe Station, exit the platform at the Perth end, and head west down Forrest Street for about 10 min. Or you can take bus 102 from Williams street or Esplanade station and it has a stop right by the Cottesloe beach. There is a shady grassed area as well as sand, and the beach is patrolled.
Cycle. Perth has excellent bike paths and fantastic weather almost all year round which makes it perfect for cycling. The paths that follow the Swan River are very scenic and mostly flat. You can take your own bike, hire a bicycle from one of the bike hire providers located near the Swan River or take a tour with Bluetongue Bike Tours or Pedal OZ
Parks. Perth has a number of fantastic parks, ranging from inner-city parks such as Kings Park, Bold Park, and Lake Monger, to outer city parks such as John Forrest and Whiteman Park
Catch a flick. At one of the many independent or European cinemas, including Paradiso in Northbridge and The Luna cinemas in either Leederville or Fremantle. These cinemas showcase a range of local, Bollywood, French and Italian productions as well as International film festivals and documentaries throughout the year. Also check out the open air cinemas in summer, located in Kings Park, Movies by Burswood, Luna Leederville, and Mundaring.

15 Things NOT to Do in Singapore
Singapore is considered a contemporary, commercial, cosmopolitan city-state
However, in this former British colony there are a few rules, taboos and quirks you should be aware of so as not to offend anyone
Here are 15 things NOT to do in Singapore
1. Don't Chew Gum – Unless you Have Prescription
You can be fined $500 if you chew and drop gum, but an exception is made for “therapeutic purposes” with a prescription.
2. Remember to Flush
“An*l” culture? If you do your doody in a public washroom without flushing the evidence, you can be fined $150!
3. No N*kedness, Even in Private
Parading around in your birthday suit, even in your own home, is akin to p*rnography. It can result in a fine up to $2000.
4. Don’t Litter
Littering can result in a $1000 fine. You might think that's rubbish, but don’t trash the place and you won’t have to worry.
5. Don’t Show Feet
Many Asians think of feet as dirty. It's considered offensive to point with toes or show the bottoms of your feet.
6. Don’t Discuss Religion
Discuss topics like religion, and you could be considered offensive. It's best to avoid hot button discussions unless you keep your cool.
7. Don’t Take Taxis
Why take a taxi when the public transportation system in Singapore is one of the best in the world? The MRT (mass rapid transit) system is fast and comfortable.
8. Don’t Snack on the MRT
Singapore’s MRT has been a “no eating or drinking” zone since 1987. Fines can be up to $500 for daring to bite!
9. Unsecured WiFi
Check the “auto-discovery” setting is turned off in Singapore. Tapping into an unsecured WiFi network is a crime almost akin to hacking.
10. Don’t Tip
In Singapore, tipping is not a standard practice, so no need to leave some extra coins for your waiter.
11. Don’t Give Gifts Without Research
Don’t wrap a gift in white, as that symbolizes mourning, or present a gift with your left hand. Furthermore, it’s common to refuse a gift not once, twice, but three times before accepting it!
12. Don’t Smoke in Public
Public smoking is prohibited. There are some designated places where you are permitted to puff, but there’s a $200 fine if you mess up.
13. No Graffiti
Spray painting on a wall, or carving a name in a bench could result in a public caning. This city occasionally sentences offenders to punishment for acts of v*ndalism.
14. No Dr*gs – Even Before You Arrive
You can get into trouble for having dr*gs in your system when arriving in Singapore, even if you ingested them before you stepped foot in the country.
15. Don’t Finger Point
In Singapore, pointing an index finger at someone is perceived as rude, so keep your digits to yourself and you won’t make waves!

Mundaring Weir Dam Tourist Attraction Traveling Western Australia 4K
Mundaring Weir Dam Tourist Attraction Traveling Western Australia 4K The insane project in the history building dam to supply water to Kalgorlie 650 km pipeline.
As well as being an idyllic place for a scenic drive, a picnic with friends, or bushwalking, Mundaring Weir is also an important part of Western Australia's heritage.
Located in natural bushland in the Perth Hills, Mundaring Weir is one of the world's greatest engineering projects.
Completed in 1903, the Weir was the start of the water pipeline that pumped water to the Kalgoorlie goldfields, some 700 kilometres away.
At the foot of the weir is the Number 1 Pump Station Museum where you can learn more about the brilliant engineer behind the project, C.Y. O'Connor, who endured much public criticism and tragically took his own life.
A drive trail that follows the pipeline called the Golden Pipeline Heritage Trail starts at the museum.
There are several walking trails around Mundaring Weir that take you deep into virgin bush.
You'll see beautiful native plants, animals and plenty of birds. You can also walk across the massive concrete Weir wall.
Pack a picnic and enjoy the barbecue facilities, grassed areas and shady trees. While improvement works are underway, there will be limited access both above and below the Weir wall.
