About Perth
Perth is the capital and largest city of the state of Western Australia. It is separated from Adelaide (the nearest city with over 100,000 inhabitants) by a distance of 2,120 km, including the vast spaces of the Nullarbor Plain, making it one of the world's most isolated cities. Despite this isolation, it is a surprisingly vibrant and cosmopolitan city, and there are plenty of activities to keep a visitor entertained. Perth spreads out along on a flat coastal plain, dissected by the Swan River, and spreads over the Darling Scarp to the east. The Indian Ocean coastline to the west is its only distinct physical boundary making it the most isolated continental city anywhere in the world. Perth has a population of 2.3 million (2023), making it the fourth largest city in Australia.
