Discover Victoria Park

Victoria Park brings together art in public spaces, historic architecture and green spaces to create a multifaceted destination. Murals, distinctive cottages, tree-lined streets and gardens give the area a variety of character. This offers different points of focus for planning your trip: art, architectural history, parkland or connections towards the Perth CBD.

Street Art Across the Area

More than 45 colourful murals and contemporary street art works by international and local artists are spread across the area. The art is not limited to a single spot, but can be found in various parts of Victoria Park. The mix of murals and contemporary works, as well as local and international artists, offers different perspectives on the area.

The Urban Gallery Victoria Park walking map is available as a guide. Copies can be obtained from local businesses in Victoria Park or from Vic Park Minilab. As availability may change, check in advance if your plans depend on having a map.

Cottages and Built History

Victoria Park has numerous distinctive cottages dating from the early 20th century, many of which have been restored. It also has tree-lined streetscapes and several state-registered heritage buildings. For architecture enthusiasts, the appeal lies both in individual registered buildings and in the broader streetscape, with its cottages and trees. This makes it possible to explore architectural history not only through individual buildings, but also through the character of the streets.

Landmarks and Gardens

Windmill and Wishing Well is a model windmill with a wishing well set in a park landscape. This picturesque landmark is located at the corner of Albany Highway, Shepperton Road and Asquith Street, at the entrance to Victoria Park and the Causeway. With its windmill and well, the site combines a striking feature with its parkland setting.

Memorial Gardens is a park with gardens and plenty of shade. The memorial commemorates the men and women who served and fought for the country. The park thus combines gardens with a place of remembrance; when planning your trip, you can consider a memorial site alongside the architectural attractions.

Activities Nearby

McCallum Park is located near Victoria Park. It has competition-standard skate and scooter facilities, including a large rideable plaza, as well as refurbished basketball courts featuring large-scale artworks. This brings together different activity options: skate and scooter facilities on the one hand, and basketball courts with art on the other. If you are interested in both exercise and design, you can take both into account when planning your trip.

Bridge Connection and Choosing a Hotel

Completed in late 2024, the Boorloo Bridge connects the Perth CBD with Victoria Park for pedestrians and cyclists; part of the bridge is located in McCallum Park. This connection may be an important factor in choosing where to stay if you plan to travel between Victoria Park and the Perth CBD on foot or by bike.

Then check the location of the specific accommodation based on the places that matter to your plans. This lets you choose a hotel according to the experiences that are important to you.
