Spend a weekend at Fremantle.
[ 0 ]Take a train to Femantle (Freo) from Perth City Train Station. Board the Fremantle Line from platform 7. It is a short 30 min ride.The E SHED Market is just beside the Freo train station. Exit the station and turn right. The market is just a short walk away. The E SHED Market offers much cheaper souvenirs than the iconic Fremantle Market.
CICERRELLOS FISH AND CHIP Restaurant at the fishing Boat Harbour is a 90 year old establishment serving Perth's Best Fish and Chips. The Chilli Mussels are great too. This is a great place to bring the kids to see the fishes and sea creatures displayed in a gigantic aquarium. For adults I suggest LITTLE CREATURES BREWERY in Freo's Fishing Boat Harbour. The cellar door bar and restaurant with more than 300 seats serves their award winning craft beer. The woodfired pizzas and the BBQ squids are highly recommended. They also serve kangaroo meat. The Capuchino Strip beside the Fremantle Market is lined with numerous restaurants. Try the Gelato here. Do go on a weekend as both the markets are close on weekdays.
Enjoy.

Towns to visit ( out of city area) in Perth
[ 0 ]I loved walpole! it's like a tree top walk. Extremely romantic! (:
you should also try Mandurah, Bunbury for dolphin watch,
Margaret River for wineries, chocolate factory and hiking
If you are the adventurous sort, you could try Augusta for cave visiting and you could even visit the lighthouse!

Great parks to visit in Perth
[ 0 ]If you love the greens, please head to kings park, Walpole-Nornalup National Park and Araluen Botanic Park. The Red Tingle trees are unique to the Walpole area and its beautiful there!

Places to chill during winter in Perth
[ 0 ]Perth is kind of boring especially during winter but depends on what you like doing.
You could try Swan valley or Margret river, there are plenty of individual vineyards there.
Farms are somewhere down south. Oh, you could visit Rottnest island although there's really nothing much to do there.
