Perth is renowned for its superb weather, beautiful beaches and relaxed lifestyle. Combining lively urban charm with spectacular outdoor spaces, this cosmopolitan city has been ranked the 7th most liveable city in the world by the Economist Intelligence Unit.
The tropical summers and cool winters are perfect for taking advantage of Perth’s selection of 19 beautiful beaches. These, combined with clear, turquoise water and clean, white sand are just some of the reasons why Perth was named one of the top 20 coastal cities in the world by Condé Nast Traveller.
Perth is brimming with culture, and the Perth Culture Centre is home to an extraordinary number and range of artistic hotspots. Within this small radius in the heart of Perth, you can visit the state Art Gallery and state Museum, the Library of Western Australia, and enjoy world-class theatrical performances at the State Theatre Centre.
Comedy is central to life in Perth, with comedy clubs located throughout the city and performances happening all year round. Perth also hosts the annual world-famous International Comedy Festival, in which nearly 30,000 comedy fans watch over 150 of the world’s best comedians.
Perth is home to a range of beautiful parks and botanical gardens, including Kings Park. Rich in both Aboriginal and European influences, Kings Park is one of the largest inner city parks in the world, and the most popular visitor destination in Western Australia. The park offers stunning view of the city skyline, and exciting Bushland walk trails.
I feel safe in Perth and I am thankful that my parents let me study overseas. I really enjoy being able to hang out at the beach, but also at Kings Park in the middle of the city. The people here made me feel at home very quickly. I'd say to anyone given the chance to come here that Perth is a great place to study and live.
