Kakadu (

) is more than a nature reserve: it's an adventure into a
natural and cultural landscape like no other. Weathered by successive sea-
sons of Wet and Dry, the sandstone ramparts of Kakadu, and neighbouring
Arnhem Land, have sheltered humans for eons, and an extraordinary legacy of
rock art remains. Represented are mysterious figures of the Dreaming, hunting
stories, zoological diagrams, and 'contact art' - records of visitors from Indonesia
and more recent European colonists. Kakadu's Ubirr and Nourlangie galleries are
of World Heritage significance and accessible to all.
