|  | Travel to the center of Australia, to Alice Springs, an oasis in the bush. Search out its roots, the Aboriginal culture. Contemplate the unique, subtly hued natural setting. This is a magical place, one you must see.
Postcard
It's the perfect place to stop a while. Time stands still. The red-sand and rock landscapes seem to be posing for posterity.
Works of nature
The passing centuries have sculpted the landscapes, pierced the hills, dug the gorges. Listen to the life of the rocks. Feel the ambiance of this other world. |

| | Tribal culture
Some 8,000 Aboriginals live here and there is a museum that recounts their history. The gallery presents works stamped "local artists." Buying one helps ensure their future.
Telegraphic style
It's like a set out of a western: a telegraph station in the middle of the desert. Since 1872, it has connected Adelaide and Darwin to the rest of the world. A tribute to life without cell phones.
Prisoners of the desert
Desert rivers, sand dunes, forests... at the Alice Springs Desert Park you've got a date with kangaroos, wallabies and cockatoos! |
