In the Uluru-Katja Tjuta National park and listed by the UNESCO, Uluru is a giant purple monolith, 3.6 km long and peaking at 863 metres. The emblem of Australia, Uluru is sacred to the aboriginal Anangu tribe.
My suggestion
Discover Uluru at sunrise or at sunset from the different points of view created for this purpose. Learn about aboriginal culture at the Uluru-Kata Tjuta cultural centre. Do the Mala Walk. Don't forget the Olga Mountains 30 km from Uluru.
