Uluru-Ayers Rock of Red Center

Uluru named Ayers Rock is the hugest independent rock in the world. It is also a sacred place to aboriginal people. It is famous because its beautiful red color changes by the sun in a day. When I decided to visit Northern Territory of Australia, it is a place I must see in person. I think it is worth to spend time and money on exploring there, and you can also experience their special aboriginal culture.

There are two ways to visit Ayers Rock. One is to climb to the top of the big rock, and the other one is to walk around Uluru's base. I chose to walk around the big rock because Anangu traditional owners prefer if you don't climb to the top of Ayers Rock, and I respect it. Our group got up in the very early morning because we didn't want to miss the beautiful view of Uluru in. Not surprisingly there were already lots of visitors there when we arrived. I took some photos of Uluru, and I was very surprised to see the view when its color changed by the sun. I also very excited to see it in person. It took me about two and half hours to walk around it, and you were also amazed by walking to see it closely. It was a pity not to understand the explanations of the signs because of my broken English. If you want to know aboriginal stories and arts it is the best way to know by the signs. When I travel this is the only thing I feel pity, so that is why I want to improve my English better. It is rare to see such a huge rock, especially in the desert, and I am glad to take this tour to experience this beautiful place in person. I am still missing it sometimes.
