Updates From King's Park and the WA Scout Headquarters

Kings Park and Botanic Garden is visited by millions of people each year. With its remarkable expanses of unique bushland, tranquil parkland and botanic garden, nicely set on a hill overlooking two rivers, and its proximity to Perth city, the park is the most popular visitor destination in Western Australia.
Boab trees have hollow tree trunks can grow to have a circumference of over 14 metres and was used at one point used as "prison cells" in the 1890s by the local police to lock up Aboriginal prisoners over night, on their way to Derby for sentencing.
The treetop walk called "The Dreaming Serpent"... wonderfully constructed blending man-made elements with the natural environment.Here we go, off to the Scout HQ!
