Reviews
"Beautiful place with a playground, benches to have a good picnic with your family and you will have a beautiful view if you climb the tower."
"Springtime stunner for a plethora of local blooming beauties. Network of paths, suitable for wheelchairs."
"Stumbled upon the museum while exploring the park and noticing the related outdoor artwork last Sunday. The current exhibition, Freedom: Stories from Skate Culture WA, was really fascinating and gave a great insight into the origins of skateboarding and the resulting influence it had on Western Australia. The museum assistant was easy to talk to and made for a more memorable experience!"
"Have a very nice communication historical society display on at the moment, mounted with help from the Embroidery guild of WA. An added attraction to visit this absolute gem of a place right in the heart of the city of Melville at Booragoon."
"It was a fun day at this place with my partner. Even when the main museum was closed, there was a lot of plaques and information displays that kept us entertained and informed. And the view of the river from the vantage point was really nice."
