PRLog (Press Release) - Feb 01, 2010 - It comprises of some articles and short stories. The author described the story of this beautiful “Blue Mountains” park, that according to his guide the three mountains called three sisters were the daughters of a shepherd who kept roaming in search of three equally wealthy and handsome gentlemen to marry his daughters. When one decent eligible man proposed for one of them he refused saying that he can not lend him the hand of his daughter as the other two will be unhappy. Thus, continuing the search of equal happiness for each of his daughters he ended up with all three, unmarried and old. One day he recalled at this point (Blue Mountains) that one eligible man proposed for his daughter yet he refused in the fear of making the other two unhappy or jealous. At that time, one of his daughters said, at least that way, today one of us would have been happy! This made the old man realize that the happiness of one is not the unhappiness of others. He transformed them into the three stones; today we call the “three sisters”.

The park offers visitor centers at Glenbrook and Black heath, both open daily, bush camping, rock climbing, fishing, swimming and all that. The Three Sisters, the grand cliffs and valleys, the wildflowers in spring, the autumn colors in April, it is a perfect place for sight seeing and a lot of other activities associated with it.
The Blue Mountains is a tourist area, visiting the region in spring will allow you to see some of the rarest and wildest mountain flowers, in summer its amazingly cool, and in autumn, the falling autumn leaves create a magical effect on the exotics planted in the gardens and in the surrounding district. In suburbs of Blue Mountain, there are many other tourist attractions and by spending a couple of hours each you can have a complete picture of the whole locality plus a memorable handful of different activities these places have to offer. Across from the highway by turning north is situated the Mount Victoria. There is also the historic site at Hartley, just off the Great Western Highway (highway 32) on the Jenolan Caves road, which is open every day. Good walks in the area include the Scenic railway to Ruined Castle Walk, the Three Sisters Walk and the Scenic Railway to Furber's Steps, however wearing appropriate shoes, keeping a first aid kit, taking water bottled of your own and avoiding going alone is recommended for tourists. Besides, if you have a prior experience of a mountain region, you may know that in such regions a chilly wind blows very often specially near evenings and in nights so take some warm cloths with you.
