西オーストラリア周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

Located along the waterfront at Elizabeth Quay, the First Contact sculpture by Noongar artist Laurel Nannup tells a story from the early encounters between Noongar people and European ships arriving on the Swan River. The 5-metre-tall aluminium sculpture is shaped like a bird with outstretched wings, representing how the Noongar people believed the distant sailing ships looked like giant birds carrying the spirits of their ancestors. Set beside the water, the artwork is a meaningful cultural stop along the path and an important reminder of the area’s deeper history.

Stirling Range National Park protects one of Western Australia’s most rugged mountain landscapes, known for its dramatic peaks and rich biodiversity. The park is home to Bluff Knoll, the highest summit in southern Western Australia, and is especially popular during wildflower season. A vehicle entry fee of $8 applies per car (up to twelve occupants). You can pay by card when you get to the park entrance or purchase the annual permit online. Weather conditions can change quickly at higher elevations, and temperatures at the summit are often much cooler than surrounding lowlands. Stay on formed tracks and carry sufficient water.

Market open from Friday to Sunday

It's most beautiful during the blue hour of photography when the sun makes the window shine orange-red from the west.
