Tourist Guide Kwinana
Kwinana can be described as one of the ‘Local Government Areas’ of ‘Western Australia’.
The area of Kwinana on the whole comes out to be 118 sq. Km. Moreover, it happens to lay at an approximate distance of 40 Km on the southern side of Perth CBD; through Kwinana Freeway.
The name ‘Kwinana’ has been derived from ‘SS Kwinana’, i.e. a ship which had been driven ashore in the year 1922. Certain suburbs on their part mention names of theirs from sailings ships which first fetched immigrants to ‘Western Australia’; like Parmelia, Calista, and Medina.
The name ‘Kwinana’ is, in actual sense, an ‘Aboriginal’ word, from Kimberley area; which means ‘pretty maiden’. However, numerous people think of this name of being ironical; as this city has an extremely big industrial region; with urban sprawl linking adjoining regions.
The population of Kwinana can be estimated to be 25812.
