Uluru is a monolith in the center of Australia (located 335 km south west of the nearest large town, Alice Springs) that is thought (by many people) to be the largest one in the world, with a height of 348 meters, and a circumference of 9.4 kilometers. ... https://www.touropia.com/largest-monoliths-in-the-world/ https://www.msn.com/en-us/travel/tripideas/13-largest-monoliths-in-the-world/ss-AAmTjke#image=3 Actually Mount Augustus is the largest monolith in the world (located 852 km north of Perth, Australia).But in the case of Mount Augustus there is a scree slope so it lacks the distinctive shape of Uluru. Mount Augustus also has considerable vegetation on its slopes. https://www.smh.com.au/lifestyle/mount-augustus-20040208-gdkqzd.html . Uluru, on the other hand, has a hard coating on its exterior and there is no scree slope at the bottom of it. Uluru (or Ayers Rock) is Australia's most recognizable natural icon. Dramatically, its normal terracotta hue gradually changes to blue or violet at sunset, to flaming red in the mornings as the sun rises from behind it. https://www.touropia.com/colors-of-uluru-in-australia/ It is sacred to the Pitjantjatjara Anangu, the aboriginal people of the Central Australian desert.
