No visitor to Australia should leave the country without seeing the majestic Uluru (Ayers Rock), which stands in splendid isolation in the middle of the desert. The rock is a sacred site for the Aboriginal culture of Australia, and figures prominently in the myths and legends concerning the dreamtime. Most easily reached from Alice Springs, Ayers Rock is best viewed at sunset, when the red rock appears to glow in the fading light, and is a magical experience. There are many hotels in the area where you can relax for a few days, and several tour companies actually include a day trip to the rock itself. For travellers looking for the ultimate experience of Australian hospitality at Ayers Rock, the superb 5* Sails in the Desert Hotel is an excellent choice.
