Photo Journey: Aboriginal Culture of Kakadu & Arnhem Land

Find more information about Aboriginal Culture at http://australiasoutback.com

Visit a place where time stands still and an ancient culture lives on. For more than 40,000 years, the Aboriginal people of Kakadu and Arnhem Land have lived at one with the land.

Follow in their footsteps and discover Australia through their eyes. Stories, told on rock canvasses, endure on the walls of Ubirr and Nourlangie Rock in Kakadu and further east at Injalak Hill in west Arnhem Land.

On the remote, unspoilt coastline of Port Bradshaw at Bawaka, share their culture through traditional song and dance. Here, men attempt spear fishing mud crab and mullet, while ladies learn the ancient craft of pandanus weaving.

Aboriginal history is intrinsically linked with the land and a visit to the Buku-Larrnggay Mulka Art Centre in Yirrkala, 17 kilometres south of Nhulunbuy is a must. If you're lucky, you may get to watch artists bring their canvasses to life.
