To every Australian thinks Perth is another country
New Castle NSW here, I agree with many comments here, We underestimate how beautiful and wonderful Perth is here in the east coast. . . I’d love to visit its just cheaper to fly overseas than to fly to earth and im not willing to drive across the country. . .
Come for a drive with me, Ryan? Through the northern beaches of Sydney Australia? https://youtu.be/4QzLc6Brujk
No sound on the video you watched?
Come for a drive with me, Ryan? Through the mountains and see a waterfall https://youtu.be/PKfxCFoAn94
As someone who lives in Perth (well, Rockingham actually, which is about 37 mins south of Perth), I consider myself very lucky. It's a beautiful city. Wouldn't want to live anywhere else. King's Park is huge and overlooks the city on a hill top. The ANZAC war memorial featured in the video is here, as is the huge Botanic Gardens.If you head West from the mainland, you have Rottnest Island which was featured. Stunning place to visit.If you head East, you have the Darling Scarp/Range of hills of natural bushland and forest. We have many National Parks around Perth and in the South-West of West Australia.Head south past Rockingham/Mandurah/Bunbury towards Busselton and Dunsborough you have fabulous wine country. The landscape is full of natural forests, magnificent coastlines (Cape Naturaliste), underground caves to explore (Ngilgi/Mammoth/Jewel/Lake/Calgardup). Head North of Perth you'll come to the Pinnacles, ancient limestone formations that are millions of years old.Check it out... and you definitely have to come here one day.

It’s always nice to see Perth through the eyes of another. I often take for granted how beautiful our city and the state of Western Australia is. Sandgroper born and bred. Really is a big country town. We were also fortunate(although some say unfortunate) that for the first 2 years of Covid we lived life as normal apart from travel restrictions. Lol always a bed at mine if you guys want to come visit
Perth is nice. I have never seen the big cities on the east side. I am envious of how easy it is to travel from city to city there. It can feel quite isolated here especially when you can’t afford to fly.
Perth Boy checking in (SOR for those playing along ). Love this state, wouldn't want to live anywhere else in the world.
I live in Perth. I like living here even though it's over 2,000 kms to the next closest city. I think you would enjoy Perth and what the whole of Western Australia has to offer. Cheers Judy.
Look up the history of Kalgoorlie. Our main gold town.
The Bell Tower. Cost a fortune, looks cool but most think it was a waste of money. Could've used the money on something else. Goes with 1/2 the sculptures and sight seeing parts, except the old buildings. God the state wasted some money over the years. Like Yagan Square. Built 5 years ago and noone visits it as we can't get enough of the premises filled. Mostly empty now.
That's my home town. Best place in the world
Actually it's one of the smallest cities, the quietest and the least amount of people. But has 2 rivers running through the city, the beach is 15min drive away. You can drive 30mins in 3 directions and get rural suburbia spots. The actual suburban area is like 50mins to the city in each way. Its really easy to get around. And most of all the lowest prices to buy a house in Australia.
They forgot the quokkas
Born and raised in Perth for 40+ years, been here my whole life. We are the best kept secret in Australia, and we prefer it that way. Please continue to draw attention to Sydney and Melbourne, even Brisbane. We like it quiet here and prefer to be kept out of any prying international eyes lol. Cheers!
That chubby tree is a boab from the Kimberley..north.
7 generation Perthite. Very proud to be.
As boring as Perth is (possibly a good thing), I guess we are pretty lucky to live here.You forgot to mention it's both the most isolated and the longest city in the world.
Hi from Perth glad u liked it , yes do visit Perth many people forget about it. also do a short trip to Rottnest where the quokkas live
I live in Perth we have the best beaches best weather.
Hey Ryan we can only hear you not the video in Perth . You have headphones on ..
Yes Ryan I live in Perth born and raised. It's a fantastic city and I love where I live ... Northam 88km east of Perth . Look it up. Love your videos. WA
9:20 What about the one in the bottom corner of the cabinet. I doubt you would be just tucking either of those in your shirt (well not easily anyway), the top one likely weighs at least 2kgs, the big one down at the bottom, that woudl weigh much more.
Quite an old video but you got a taste….
boab tree
its a bell tower
Yes I’m living in Perth! I love the ocean! I’ve never lived anywhere else for comparison but I’m not planning to relocate. I love seeing this!
i love living in perth
"Houston, we have a problem. " No sound on the video
Shots fired at Central Park Pretty sure Kings Park is the biggest city park in the world...Or something
It’s pronounced Perf
It’s way better than Sydney / which is a moist overpriced / overhyped shit hole
Have you already forgotten your first love, Brisbane ? For shame !
Was this video meant to have audio?
Where you saw Subway, is Hillarys boat Harbour. The house I grew up in is about a 10 minute walk from there in the suburb of Hillarys. Although I live in Melbourne now.
I would love to see Perth one day. I live in Adelaide and have only been to Brisbane. I only saw Sydney high up on a air plane when we were connecting flights from Adelaide to the Gold Coast at Sydney airport. I have also been to Melbourne when I was very little but can not remember. I heard Perth is a great city to visit though I do love Adelaide though
The Australian gold rush started just after the Californian gold rush ended, leading to a massive influx of miners from the US and China. The difference was that the California rush lasted for just seven years , while Australia had significant finds for over 40 years. Bendigo and Ballarat in Victoria were the first large strikes (and years later was the spark for Melbourne becoming the wealthiest city in the world) but there were a number of other major gold finds throughout Australia including Kalgoorlie in WA and Gympie and Charters Towers in Qld.
Gold Rushes in Aus: 1848 NSW, 1851 Vic., 1852 Tasmania, 1857 QLD, 1871 N.T., 1890 West Aust.
Perth is also this quiet..there's only 4 of us here...
Perth is the cleanest city in Australia by a long way. Its something I have noticed but my partner is a flight attendant of several years and she agrees after spending considerable time in every city in the country. It is just a fact. Australia has the largest amount of gold mine reserves on earth and the vast majority of it is in Western Australia, along with a plethora of other minerals. WA also has lots of natural gas too. It is a very lucky place to be.
Travelers go to Sydney and Melbourne and skip Perth, but those that come to Perth never go home! Cleanest city in the world and the Chinese want it! in Perth you could wear a white business shirt for a month and the collar still wouldn't be dirty.I came to Perth in 1981 and I am still here lol, Favourite city for US sailors and even navy pilots to jump ship. We are a US Navy friendly port city and more west Aussies have been on US aircraft carriers than US naval personnel
Iam from Perth best place 2 live kn the world just reckon.
Sorry to say that was not all in Perth city it had lots surrounding areas north and south even east and possibly rotto as well
Why is there no audio coming from the video being viewed???
Sure, Perth has the ocean, but you have the Ohio River!
As a perth citizen i can strongly say that perth is the best city in the world.also north of the river is and always will be the superior side.
Lived in Perth for most of my life and growing up in the 60's forward I don't really have anything to complain about. Consider myself lucky to be brought up in a super place !It's not perfect of course but there's a lot to like about it.
I've lived here 52 of my 58 years. It's home!
3:48 This is the belltower. They have some of the old bells from St Martin-In-The-Fields. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_Martin-in-the-Fields
I live in Perth and I've always thought its mid :pEdit: I love your content and thanks for appreciating Australia. Haha, I guess I never saw Perth in this way
3:41 Looks like the "Moon and Sixpence" pub, which is no longer around.3:48 This is the belltower. They have some of the old bells from St Martin-In-The-Fields. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_Martin-in-the-Fields8:12 Thats Gordon Stevenson House. Its 20 floors of government employees.
That tower with the looking thing is called the Bell Tower, and it’s pretty cool you should take a look into it 3:49 I rang the bells in the bell tower as a kid and it was incredible
Ryan give us the info on your scratch on your face
Ok people of Perth, let’s be honest, what’s taller, the BHP or rio Tinto or south 32 tower
Grapes that are used to make wine are very specific varieties the grapes we eat aren’t great for making wine
Is there no sound to the video you’re watching??
That tower you said needs more telescopes is called the bell tower. Evry hour the bell rings. There are tiles on the side of the building that contain the names of children from Perth Schools. My brother's name is up there. It is absolutely beautiful.
Perth born and bred here! Been here all of my 47 years and I just love it. No matter where you go there is always a friendly face to be found. Hope you are able to come out West sometime soon
What else do we want....NOTHING cause we live in Western Australia...we have it all
Where's the sound? No sound on the Perth video. Technical issue
I live in perth but i don't want to lol (hate ocean and avoid sun coz skin cancer, dry air is bad for my skin and i find that perth itself i dunno air pressure or whatever microclimate etc i have less energy here than anywhere else O.o so just a very bad match lol ) The good thing is nothing ever happens. But the bad thing is nothing ever happens. And there's no food after 8pm, cafes close insanely early at like 2 or 3pm and if you don't like the beach you.... sit at home and watch youtube videos of other interesting places If you like the beach and don't mind hot weather and dry air all yr round, apparently it's a fantastic place to live... just not for me
The video is much better with sound and commentary… click the link to the original video in the description.
I live in Geraldton, which is about 4.5 hours drive north of Perth. Love my city.That toxin capsule was closer to where I live.
Yes sir I am in Perth
Most of the gold rush was in Victoria, near Ballarat and Bendigo. Here is a cut and paste:-Considered by most authorities to be the biggest gold nugget ever found, the Welcome Stranger was found at Moliagul, Victoria, Australia, in 1869 by John Deason and Richard Oates. It weighed gross, over 2,520 troy ounces (78 kg; 173 lb) and returned over 2,284 troy ounces (71.0 kg; 156.6 lb) net. The Welcome Stranger is sometimes confused with the similarly named Welcome Nugget, which was found in June 1858 at Bakery Hill, Ballarat, Australia by the Red Hill Mining Company. The Welcome weighed 2,218 troy ounces (69.0 kg; 152.1 lb). It was melted down in London in November 1859. Large size nuggets are still being found around the world. On 16 January 2013, a large gold nugget was found near the city of Ballarat in Victoria, Australia by an amateur gold prospector. The Y-shaped nugget weighed slightly more than 5 kilograms (11 lb), measured around 22 cm high by 15 cm wide, and has a market value slightly below 300,000 Australian dollars, though opinions have been expressed that it could be sold for much more due to its rarity. The discovery has cast doubt on the common rumour that Victoria's goldfields were exhausted in the 19th century.
Also, WA has something you can’t get anywhere else. Paradise island. Also known as Rottnest
is it me or was there no sound to this? Its a shame, as I am from Perth and I wanted to see why they didnt mention Fremantle
It’s a shame that the Travel Tour didn’t have sound that would have been way better explaining what’s what
The glass tower is the Bell Tower was commissioned by the premier at the time Richard Court and is nt so affectionately termed Dick's Erection. And regarding the dinosaurs - look up Gondwana land
No sound
I been to every capital in Oz and not 30 minutes off the plane in Perth hit you just how clean the place is, and better than any place on the planet I have ever been, there was no litter, parks the lawns not a blade of grass was out of place i live in Adelaide which is clean but Perth is on another level if i was to move out of SA i would live in Perth or Brisbane, Sydney is a dump and Melbourne is worse, i hate going to Victoria period, most of my relations we are from Katoomba in NSW I couldn't wait to leave the dump and haven't been back and never will
https://youtu.be/TZ3M3bt22v4Do this one next Ryan.
Hey I'm in perth!! I'm from down south originally (Donnybrook/Busselton) but hubby and I moved last year. So excited We're the furthest state capital to a country capital in the world!
Hello from Perth! The best place on earth
Swanbourne is the only part of Perth that matters.
Hello? Didn't anyone else notice Expedia's footage lacks a soundtrack?
A lot of mining through the state including gold. Check out Kalgoorlie, particularly the super pit. Our beautiful great southern region produces some amazing wines, cheese and fresh produce including meats.
And how good has the weather been here this summer? Was just saying to my partner that days like today really make you appreciate how lucky we are to live in Perth.
Perth has a strong sense of confidence and self assuredness. I'm from the east and Perth rocks.
Nice images, but unfortunately, the video has no sound. It was nice anyway.
Even though they get their share of troublemakers, when I was involved in direct selling, therefore meeting thousands of people, whenever I ran into Perth people, I found them to be extremely friendly. I’m not saying our other states don’t have mainly friendly people, but I did notice a difference. The problem is when you’re from Melbourne/Sydney/East Coast, it’s so bloody far away and in the three months that I spent there, it felt like I was on the other side of the world. Of course that’s only psychological due to the distance, but yeah it’s a long way from the eastern seaboard.In Oz, if you’re from Melbourne you will find people who will bag Sydney/Brisbane, and they do the same to each other state. Don’t know if it’s the same in the US, but probably most people like which ever state they are brought up in. Every state has disadvantages and advantages, most people however, will only see the advantages of their state, and the disadvantages of the others.
I grew up on the East Coast, and moved to Perth. It's fantastic!
i find it amazing how americans just don’t like subway. subway in the us really must be that shit lmao
If you do visit, hit me up and we'll have some beers!
We're blessed :)
The tree that looks like its had 1 too many mcdoubles is called a boab tree.
Loving Perth, moved here just before Christmas. Its so big and beat my expectations
Ryan, further north up the coast is the Ningaloo Marine Park, that would make a great video. See YBS Youngbloods YouTube channel.
Greetings from Perth.
The tall glass thing is the bell tower, it's beautiful at night
Yes, I agree, the skyline is beautiful.
Obviously Ryan, there are quite a few people on here from Perth, just like me. At the moment I’m having a holiday in a little country town 2 1/2 hours from Perth. Today I went for a swim in the Collie river, just 5km from where I’m staying and it’s absolutely amazing and didn’t cost a thing for the swim. We are so blessed to live here.
Perth is as beautiful as it looks in the video. :-) And Western Australia has some incredible sights to see.
Could not hear the video. Only your comments lol
I am 3 and a half hours south of Perth. Paradise down here. The chubby Tree was a Boab from the North West of the state. There have been a number of Gold Rush's in Australian history.
would be nice to hear what your watching ..
Perth is also only a few hours away from the famous Margaret River wine region - which is Australia's most Bordeau-like climate and soil structure. If you don't want to travel that far then about 20 - 30 minutes will take you to the Swan Valley which is also an excellent (but not Bordeau-like) region of lovely wine.
Perth and WA are frickin awesome. Been here 40 years and it’s absolutely stunning!
