Western Australia is renowned for its rich history, vibrant multicultural society, and stunning natural landscapes. It's a major business destination, an export powerhouse and pivotal in driving Australia's external trade. Its Aboriginal history dates back more than 50,000 years – making it one of the world's oldest living cultures. And, with more than 3,000 hours of sunshine annually, Perth holds the distinction of being Australia's sunniest capital city.
