One of the most amazing places I've ever been. I went with no expectations, but Uluru (Ayers Rock) was larger than I thought, imposing and strikingly beautiful. It's a shame about the white scar where thousands of people climb the rock each year against the express wishes of the Anangu people who consider it sacred.

  • Oh and sorry do u know what the song is? i really liked it

  • Thanks for the kind words! The song is "Nobody Teaches Life Anything" by Dogs Die in Hot Cars

  • What's more, I have it on good authority, that the nearest post office to Uluru receives packages of rocks each year from all over the world, sent by tourists who thought it a good idea to souvenir a rock or two to take home with them. For some reason they associate subsequent bad luck experiences with having taken the rocks, and feel returning them is the solution to their sudden difficulties. Spooky.

  • Have you been to the visitor centre there? You can see some of the letters and rocks that people have mailed back. It's insane.

  • Are there heaps of flies there?

  • Tourists are using Uluru 'as a toilet'

  • yeah uluru is brilliant..

    hated those fcking flies though .. argh!

  • Oh Wow! I can't wait to one day visit the red center! even though i live in sydney, it seems so far away and so expensive to travel there!! Its so ironic how the sign specifically says We Do Not Climb or dont climb, and there's like hundreds of people climbing it! i hope when its my turn, i can still climb it!

  • According to wikipedia, Uluru is 3.1 km wide, the Harbour bridge is 1.1 km long!

    Also Uluru is 348m tall compared to the bridge's 139m.

  • Dude this video made it look so awesome now i cant wait to go! I was planning to climb it before i realised it is offensive, so i strait away decided i wassnt going too

  • nice question!! i've been to both, but now i can't compare them. that was 8 years ago. I climbed it :D

  • My Brother was informing me on the size of Uluru and he emphasised on its extreme vastness. How would compare Uluru to, oh say, the Harbour Bridge?
