Fremantle
Fremantle Market-The market is amazing! There is so much variety in the shops, you probably should go more than one day. There are tourist shops, antique shops, honey stalls, and homemade bath & body product stalls. If you go to the market, be sure to check out the stall for Stunned Emu Designs. Wendy Binks, the creative force behind Stunned Emu Designs, has functional art that is colorful and whimsical! Also, you’ll want to go to the very back to look at the fresh produce! Several stalls have samples of fruit, so you can decide which mangoes from where taste the best. The smells alone are enough to make you walk away with enough fruit to feed an army! I took bunches of pictures of the produce section since it was so darn colorful and intoxicating! Check them out on Flickr!
High Street-High Street has a great pedestrian mall that turns into a real street. The mall is relaxing with book stores and clothing shops and ice cream vendors. There are tables and benches in the middle to take a break and just enjoy the weather! After the pedestrian mall are more shops and some art galleries. There are several framing shops which double as art galleries. There is also a very lovely and upscale indigenous art gallery. The works are breath-taking and the curator is really willing to talk about different piece, tell you about the artist, and what each piece represents. You can also check out the Record Finder for some great albums. At the end of High Street is the Round House. I, of course, documented this in pictures that are on Flickr (surprise)!
Amano-There are at least two gelato shops in Fremantle that are very close to each other. I, personally, like Amano the best.
