Landform.


Uluru commonly known as Ayers Rock is located in Yulara National Park, Northern Territory, at latitude 25°23'S and longitude 131°5'E.


This destination is a unique aspect of Australia as it is the largest sandstone rock in world. Uluru is a sacred place to many traditional Aboriginal tribes, formed by sand piling up on the bottom of an inland sea that covered the middle of Australia at Bass Straight. Over the years wind and rain have weathered the rock. Uluru is approx 3.6km long, and 335m high. Uluru is also a major tourist attraction.
