Kings Park, Western Australia

Kings Park is a 400.6-hectare (990-acre) park overlooking Perth Water and the Perth central business district, Western Australia.

The park is a mixture of grassed parkland, botanical gardens and natural bushland on Mount Eliza with two-thirds of the grounds conserved as native bushland. Offering panoramic views of the Swan River and Darling Range, it is home to over 324 native plant varieties, 215 known indigenous fungi species and 80 bird species.

It is the most popular visitor destination in Western Australia, being visited by over five million people each year.

Besides tourist facilities, Kings Park contains the State War Memorial, the Royal King's Park Tennis Club, and the Mount Eliza Reservoir. The streets are tree-lined with individual plaques dedicated by family members to Western Australian service men and women who died in World War I and World War II. The park is also rich in flora (both native and introduced) and during September of each year Kings Park hosts Australia's largest wildflower show and exhibition – the Kings Park Festival.

Since 1 July 2016, the park has been within the City of Perth local government district; however, under the City of Perth Act 2016 City local laws do not apply to or in respect of King's Park, which remains a Class A reserve administered under the Botanic Gardens and Parks Authority framework.
