Ayers Rock

Ayers Rock is also known by its Aboriginal name Uluru. It is a sacred part of Aboriginal creation mythology, or dreamtime - reality being a dream. Uluru is considered one of the great wonders of the world and one of Australia's most recognizable natural icons. Uluru is a large magnetic mound large. It is located on a major planetary grid point much like the Great Pyramid in Egypt.  Ayers Rock is a large sandstone rock formation in central Australia, in the Northern Territory. It is located in Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, 350 km southwest of Alice Springs. Explorer Ernest Giles described it in 1872 as "the remarkable pebble".

Uluru is an inselberg, literally "island mountain", and an isolated remnant left after the slow erosion of an original mountain range. The remarkable feature is the homogeneity and the lack of joining and parting at bedding surfaces lading to the lack of development of scree slopes and soil. It is Australia’s most recognizable natural landmark. It is notable for appearing to change color at different times of the day and year, most notably when it glows red at dawn and sunset. There are special roads to which visitors can access for best views.
