The most famous sight in the Blue Mountains is the Three Sisters at Echo Point. The Three Sisters consists of three yellowish-brown rock formations standing close together, forming quite a striking formation. Due to the steep terrain, they can only be viewed from a distance. They are the symbol of the Blue Mountains, and their name comes from an ancient Aboriginal legend.
