Perth Australia- Perth City


Our 1st stop in Perth City is at the Harbour Town Factory Outlet. Most of the famous brands here are only barely cheap.. but not dirt cheap, because we had to take into consideration that AUD1=S$1.26.


There's the free blue cat that will travel the central and south streets of the City. The service is very frequent. There's also the Red CAT and Yellow CAT that travels the East Streets and West Streets respectively. Great joyride way to see the city for free. see http://www.sctransit.com.au/CATinfo.html for the detailed CAT routes



Fees to the Swan Bells is $10/Adults.The Swan Bells include the twelve bells of St Martin-in-the-Fields which are recorded as being in existence from before the 14th century and recast in the 16th century by Queen Elizabeth I.The bells were again recast between 1725 and 1770 by three generations of the Rudhall family of bell founders from Gloucester in England, under the order of the Prince of Wales who was later crowned as King George II. They are one of the few sets of royal bells and are the only ones known to have left England. From one of London's most famous churches, in Trafalgar Square, the St Martin-in-the-Fields bells have rung out to celebrate many historic events.

<---Inside of London Court. London Court is mainly made up of shops for the tourist. The architecture here is simply magnificent. A couple of cafe inside this small lane gives the place a very European feel.
