Tourist Spots

Also known as the Ayers Rock, resting in the middle of the Australian continent lies the imposing monolithic sandstone structure of the Uluru, a major tourist attraction of the region. Standing at a height of more than thousand feet from the desert ground, the monument was named by Anangu, the Aboriginal people who live on the land around it and who are its traditional owners. To visit this enthralling structure, join us on Travel to Uluru. Uluru is a dramatic symbol of Australia's ancient Aboriginal heritage and its unique landscape.

Consisting of mineral rich sandstone, Uluru measures 2.4km (1.5 miles) long and 1.6km (1 mile) wide, and is one of earth's great natural wonders. Uluru is a sacred site for the Aboriginal tribes, and has great spiritual meaning. Each feature of the rock has a meaning in 'Tjukurpa' or Dreamtime, the traditional Anangu law that explains how the world was created. Another mesmerizing feature of this monolithic structure is that as each day passes, the rock changes color depending on the light and atmospheric conditions, and never remains the exact same permanent shade.When it is wet, it is purple or black and on sunny days it appears red or orange.


Uluru can be climbed and is done so by thousands of tourists every year. In recognition of the rock's significance to the Aboriginal culture, the Australian government has created the Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, which is visited each year by thousands of people from all over the world.
