Introducing Albany
Albany is a city of two tales: the stately, peeling old quarter and its rampant offspring to the north, a new, hectic sprawl of malls and fast food. Established shortly before Perth in 1826, the oldest European settlement in the state is now the bustling commercial centre of the southern region.
