The remarkable rock formation of the Blue Mountains.
The most iconic landmark in the Blue Mountains is this unusual rock formation called the Three Sisters, which stands at a height of 922 m, 918 m and 906 m respectively. According to an Aboriginal legend, they represent three sisters belonging to the Katoomba tribe who were turned into stone by tribal elders after they fell in love with brothers belonging to another tribe.
