Summary
Sunrise and sunset over Uluru, a globally recognized monolith within Australia's Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, serve as a significant ephemeral landscape that drives tourism. This study highlights the profound impact of these fleeting natural spectacles on visitor preferences and regional tourism development. By analyzing the cultural, symbolic, and economic significance of Uluru—both for Indigenous Anangu people and global tourists—the research underscores how such ephemeral landscapes can inspire new tourism experiences. The findings suggest that these phenomena not only attract visitors but also enrich the park's offerings, making them a standalone draw. The study combines qualitative insights with an exploration of tourism dynamics to demonstrate the broader role of ephemeral landscapes in shaping sustainable and culturally rich travel destinations.
