How to make one-day -trip in Perth?

Last mid-term holiday, I travelled West Australia with my roommates by driving car. And the first city that we tripped was Perth which is the capital and largest city of Australian state of West Australia. When we arrived Perth, we went to a car hire station which was very near by the airport and was convenient for traveller to hire cars. The first step for the one-day -trip in Petrth was the Kings Park and Botanic Garden which is the largest inner city park in the world and the most popular destination in WA. Next, we went to the University of Western Australia which was closed to the Kings Park and beside the Swan River. The UWA is a public research university in WA. After that was the Swan Bell Tower. And that was all my route in Perth. by Tammy Yin (44159722)
