As capital of Western Australia, Perth is counted among one of Australia's most modern cities. Considered its sunniest capital, it is an isolated city with around eighty percent of its 1.8 million people living in and around the city.

History
Situated on the west bank of the Swan River, Perth was founded in the year 1829. As cited by previous history and information, the city mainly witnessed growth due to the arrival of convicts, who tried to compensate for any shortage of labourers and workers. Soon after, with gold being discovered from all parts of the city, Perth witnessed the onset of a boom during the 1890s.

Whether they are locals or visitors, Perth’s great architectural landmarks have attracted one and all.
