Perth, Sydney and Melbourne are large cities in what country?

Perth, Sydney, and Melbourne are large cities in Australia.

These cities span different parts of the country. Sydney is the capital of New South Wales on Australia’s southeastern coast, Melbourne is the capital of Victoria farther south, and Perth is the capital of Western Australia on the continent’s western edge. Their locations help illustrate Australia’s enormous geographic scale: Perth is separated from Sydney and Melbourne by the interior of the continent.

Sydney is widely known for its harbor and the Sydney Opera House, while Melbourne is famous for its cultural institutions, sporting traditions, and café scene. Perth is the major urban center of Western Australia and is often described as one of the world’s most isolated major cities because of its distance from other large population centers.

A frequent mix-up is Canberra, Australia’s national capital. It is not one of the three cities named in the question. Sydney and Melbourne are state capitals, while Perth is also a state capital; Canberra is the federal capital.
