Today, the Blue Mountains, beginning just 65kms west of Sydney, is one of the most consistently popular holiday regions of Australia, with tens of thousands of visitors from all parts of the world enjoying the magnificent scenery, invigorating climate and high standards of modern accommodation. The deep blue hue which gave the mountains their name is caused by the scattering of light as it comes in contact with dust and droplets of oil emitted by the leave of the eucalyptus trees, and such a deep hue cannot be found anywhere else in the world.
