The most famous view in the Blue Mountains is the Three Sisters at Echo Point. The Three Sisters are three yellowish-brown rock formations standing close together, creating a rather vivid scene. Due to the steep terrain, you can only view them from a distance. They're the symbol of the Blue Mountains, and their name comes from an ancient Aboriginal legend.
