A little ways down the road from Uluru is Kata Tjuta, another amazing rock formation.
The highest peak is actually higher than Uluru, even though it doesn't seem like it. The rock winds in and out so there are many secret gorges and areas.
There is a lovely little walk into one of the gorges to a watering hole. Seeing as how the rest of the area around the Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park is deserty scrub, having the knowledge of where to find water was extremely important. It makes sense why this is a sacred place.
As we walked farther between the rocks it became more silent and peaceful. I could almost imagine kangaroos and emus coming here to drink and have down under strange animal parties in this oasis.
