NT Summer Sale

Sunset hits different at #Uluṟu 🧡✨ Uluṟu-Kata Tjuṯa National Park has five dedicated viewing areas which are cleverly positioned so that you can see the magical moment when the sun’s rays hit the rock and it's surface changes colour. More than just a photo opportunity, Uluṟu also holds great spiritual and cultural significance to local Aṉangu (the traditional owners of the area). Join a cultural tour with @exploreuluru or @seitoutbackaustralia and learn more about the history behind this special part of @visitcentralaus from knowledgeable guides.
