Second Holiday in Perth

                  I will talk about my second holiday when I was in Australia. My second holiday was busy to go to many places because I went to Perth, Cairns, and Ayers Rock together. I wrote about Ayers Rock before, so in this post, I am going to introduce Perth. Perth is located in Western Australia. If you want to go to Perth, you can’t go by direct flight. You need to get a connecting flight. Australia is a huge landmass, so it takes a long flight from Sydney and other big cities. Perth is a warm climate, so it’s very nice weather all year round. Also there are a lot of famous tourist spots, such as Swan Valley, Wave Rock, Pinnacles, Pink Lake, Esperance Beaches, Shark Bay and so on.

 

First of all, the Esperance Beaches have beautiful beaches and sea. “Esperance” means hope in French, 希望 in Japanese. Because in 1792, two warships were sheltered there from the storm. Then the beach was named Esperance after this accident. Unfortunately, I couldn’t go to the Esperance Beaches on my trip because I didn’t have enough time.

                                                                                                               Secondly, Pinnacles is one of the most popular tourist points in Western Australia. It is in Nambang National Park and there are a lot of limestone formation. I walked in the desert area and saw many rocks.

 

                                         Thirdly, Wave Rock is an objet d ‘art which was made by nature. This wave is 15 meters high. The strangely shaped rock was eroded for a long time. Around the Wave Rock, we can see The Hippo’s Yawn, and Mulka’s Cave.

It takes a long time to travel to Perth, but I recommend going to there. Perth is a beautiful city and there is a lot of nature, and there are many tourist spots. You can join an interesting tour.
