Uluru, Northern Territory, Australia

It's often called Ayers Rock, but the Aboriginal name is Uluru. It rises like an island from the desert plain, just as the island continent rises from the world ocean. Perhaps that is why Uluru has become the most popular symbol of Australia. Aesthetes gather nightly to watch the symphony of changing colors until darkness descends on the desert. [1988]
