Picture-Perfect Perth: Snap Your Way Through Town

From historic stone buildings to riverside views and colourful hidden corners, Perth is full of picture-perfect moments waiting to be captured. Grab your camera (or your phone!) and spend the day exploring some of the town's most photogenic locations. Whether you're planning a girls' weekend, a solo adventure, or simply love discovering beautiful places, Perth is ready for its close-up.

1. Start with the Classics

Begin your photo tour with two iconic Perth landmarks. Strike a pose at the bold PERTH sign at the corner of Herriott and Gore Streets, then make your way to the vintage-inspired Welcome to Perth mural tucked behind The Red Fox. They're the perfect way to kick off your adventure.

2. Wander Along the Tay Basin

Head toward the Tay Basin to discover several favourite photo spots. Climb aboard the Giant Red Chair for a fun group shot, then stroll along the waterfront to capture views of the historic Crystal Palace, the river, and the surrounding parkland. Don't miss the scenic canal view between Mex&Co. and Coutts Coffee Roastery & Café—especially when the light is just right.

3. Discover Stewart Park

One of Perth's most photographed places, Stewart Park offers beautiful scenery around every corner. Capture the charming pedestrian bridges, find the graceful willow tree, and enjoy peaceful riverside views that look stunning in every season.

4. Find Hidden Gems Downtown

As you explore downtown, keep an eye out for unique backdrops like the colourful alley beside Jazzy's Brewhaus and the beautiful floral wall at Your Charmed Life. Before you finish your tour, stop by the Big Ben statue and snap a photo with one of Perth's most celebrated local legends.
