Why is it said that the Kakadu National Park is a representation of Australia’s aboriginal culture?

 

Australia’s biggest National Park, Kakadu, has been continuously inhabited by Aboriginal people from 20,000 to 40,000 years ago. This cultural site also has waterfalls, rainforests, wetlands and exotic wildlife. The park covers 20,000 square kilometres, which is roughly half the size of Switzerland. It has 5000 art sites giving proof of thousands of years of aboriginal culture. The Ranger uranium mine is surrounded by the park. This is one of the most productive uranium mines in the world. The Kakadu National Park was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1981.
