The Blue Mountains National Park It is located about 80 kilometers west of Sidney, exactly in the state of New South Wales. It is a spectacular and well-kept and well-preserved natural park that occupies some 2,500 square kilometers. It gets its name thanks to a bluish mist that produces the oil that gives off the large number of eucalyptus trees that are in the place. Millions of tourists visit it every year since it has spectacular beauty and allows you to be in contact with nature to disconnect from the busy stress of the city, especially if you are on vacation.
There you can explore forests, meadows, small mountains and go hiking or cycling in any of its areas. As if that were not enough, in the Blue Mountains National Park you can find many kinds of vegetation, mainly ancient and strange species, although there are also some of the best known. One of the park's most visited attractions is a spectacular rocky alignment called “The three sisters”And that it is made up of three towers on top of a cliff and that, according to Aboriginal legends, represent three Indian sisters who guard the entire park.
Very interesting is also the "Katoomba Scenic Railway”, An exciting journey in cars running on a rail, the steepest in the world, and which travels about 400 meters through a rocky tunnel. An amazing adventure if you are brave. To complete the podium of essential parts you can not miss the spectacular Wentworth Falls. Whatever the area of the Park you are going to visit you will see at all times how well cared and preserved it is, so if you are going to travel to Sydney and have an occasion I recommend that you spend a day visiting it. You will not regret.
