Perth city is located on the Swan River and close to the Indian Ocean, which contributes to Perth’s temperate climate. The friendly, easy-going Western Australian nature will make you feel welcomed and relaxed. This cosmopolitan state provides services and activities to meet every need and taste, including an endless choice of international cuisine at various restaurants in Perth. Perth was voted one of the top 5 most liveable cities in the world (The Economist, 2008) and is leading the way in innovation, investment, industry development and exports. There is something here for everyone, either adventurous or relaxed. Perth, with its many parks, is surrounded by wonderful areas for site seeing including wineries, beaches, wildlife and natural wonders such as Wave Rock, the Pinnacles, Ningaloo Reef and the beehive-like formations of the Bungle Bungles which can be seen in WA’s far North West with the help of an Aboriginal guide. In the city, a traveller can enjoy a cold beer in an open-air pub, affordable shopping, the bustling weekend markets, and a variety of international cuisine. Just outside the Perth city centre is the Perth district of Northbridge where you will find a range of pubs, cafes and eateries, offering an eclectic mix of cultures and cuisines. The Sunset Coast is a place for those who enjoy long relaxing walks along clean sandy beaches, swimming in the surf on a warm sunny day, or perhaps lazing on a beach towel while watching the world go by. The Port City of Fremantle, just south of Perth, is a popular spot, particularly on weekends when you will find markets, entertainment and plenty of alfresco style cafes and eateries. The Swan Valley Region is steeped in history and is one of Western Australia’s oldest wine regions. The region is home to more than 40 vineyards, many of which are still run by the original families which started the wineries many years ago. ABOUT CURTIN UNIVERSITY: Curtin University operates fibre-optic infrastructure to connect its various business units which are located throughout the Park. The University has recently located its Key Research Centres, Institute and new Schools, such as Exploration Geophysics; Petroleum Engineering; Centre of Excellence for Exploration and Production Geophysics; Western Australian Petroleum Research Centre; and Centre of Excellence in Petroleum Geology and the University’s Tier 1 Centre of Excellence DEBI Institute (Digital Ecosystems and Business Intelligence Institute). We look forward to meeting you in beautiful city of Perth in June 2012 The HSI-2012 Organizing Committee | |
