The prohibition for aboriginals

6 Sep. 2007

The effort for non-alcoholic lifestyle of the Australian Red Mountain inhabitants has finished. Despite the indigenous people's objection to prohibit the tourist sight-seeing the authorities' determination has won. On September, 14th the law prohibiting drinking alcohol on the area of the famous Uluru Mountain (Erse-Rock) in the north of Australia will come into force. The law has been accepted by the country government as a control of teenage alcoholism, wide spread in aborigines' living place.

Thousands of tourists, daily walking up the mountain to enjoy the sunrise follow the long ago stated tradition to drink beer or wine while observing such amazing performance of the nature. The sunrise above the holy Erse-Rock, or in aboriginal Uluru is an extraordinary beautiful event, capable to charm even sceptics. The morning show sticks to your memory because of the exceptional colour flow of the rock.

According to new law, bringing alcohol is allowed only through the aboriginal lands but not drinking it in the aboriginal living places. To observe the fairy-tale sunrise is allowed only with a cup of aromatic tea or coffee. Drinking alcohol is allowed only in a cognominal hotel Ayers Rock Resort.
