Kings Park









Everlastings























September is the time to see the wildflowers in Kings Park. There are areas depicting the flora in each of the geological parts of Western Australia. As well as showcasing all the different plants, they are trying to ensure that endangered species are preserved.


These plaques are everywhere in Kings Park, memorials to all the young men who set off for adventure and never returned
