Respectful
by Ruth
(Kent, England)
I had a lovely three days at Uluru and myself and my travelling partner decided very quickly that we would not climb Uluru.
I had been told by an Aborigine that the reason they ask people not to climb it, is because it is a sacred place. People have fallen and died while climbing up this amazing rock and they do not like this to happen in such a sacred place.
Tourists should respect their wishes and find other places (which there are) to admire the spectacular scenery.
