It's about 190 kilometres west of Sydney in the Blue Mountains, a stunningly beautiful huge National Park.
The area was named because oil from the eucalyptus trees which cover the area give the air a blue haze. The air has a very nice perfume too, as you can imagine.

If you fancy having a few days there for your next holiday you'll need to start saving. The cheapest suite is A$1,950 a night, which is about AED6,000, full board and including a couple of 'nature-based activities' each day.
The Sydney Morning Herald has one of the stories, which includes some good photos

thats a gorgeous picture you have of it.
At AUD1950 per night very few aussies could afford to stay there. So I am presuming it is targeting Emirates more affulent clients that have the time and desire to view the bush.
My recommendation is to get a tent, a vehicle and some supplies and you will probably save AUD1800 per night, and be closer to the real bush.....

According to the manger, they were expecting 30% Oz to 70% international and that mostly from Europe and USA. Now they think more likely 50/50. There was no mention of Mid East guests!
I think there are plenty of cheaper alternatives. Still, it looks spectacular.
