Perth evening skyline as seen from Kings Park, the largest inner city park in the world (with an area of 4.06 km2, it is even larger than New York's Central Park which is 3.41 km2). Apart from Paris, Perth is also known as the "City of Light" since the residents lit their house lights and streetlights as American astronaut John Glenn passed overhead on the Friendship 7 in 1962; an act they repeated when Glenn was above them again on the Space Shuttle in 1998.
