PRAGUE PETRIN COLINA

We visited the greenest part of Prague : Petrin Hill . This is a park with old trees , but green , winding alleys and stairs with railings wrapped trees , green grass and gardens of roses of all colors and varieties . I 've climbed and descended the hill with a funicular ( train rack ) . The park is located about 300 m above sea level and from there you can see very well around town . The old chronicles say that this park was the site of pagan rituals dedicated to the god Petrin and it seems like no wadays bigotii to practice today as the ceremonial ancient .

TRANSALPINA- VALEA SEBESULUI

Transalpina (DN 67C) is a road in Parang Mountains, the Southern Carpathians. Unlike Transfagarasan, Transalpina not only on some portions paved.

It is a little known route, which sometimes cl imb to over 2000 m (2145 m Urdea Step), but extremely beautiful and wild. If Transfagarasanul seems to be of grade 10, 1:10 Transalpina definitely deserves more for scenery, adventure and mystery. The landscapes are beautiful, but the road itself is lacking. The best thing would be to have an off-road. From Sebes toward passing Obarsia Lotrului Oasa is a beautiful place with a lake, one of the first 5-6 of the largest country. After Obarsia Lotrului, the right is the dam . This dam - is made of clay rocks in the middle. Now on a good road, paved, we arrived at Vidra.Si...

“The Women Cavern” is to be found hollowed out inside the depths of the calcareous massif within the limits of the village of Baia de Fier (The Iron Bath) (the Gorj County) close to the Galbenul (the Yellow River) at an altitude of 700 m. This natural monument is made up of “original adornments” (calcareous concretions) which bring fantasy and magnificence to the cavern. “The Women Cavern” is a jewel of stone, gracefully shaped by the force of the mountain waters. The cavern is known under this name because it was used as a hiding place by women, children and old persons while the men made war in order to defend their homes. In this cavern there can be seen impressive forms of the karst relief : the Small Basins, the Organ, made of the union of stalagmites and stalactites and the Small Dome, a kind of a strange castle. It follows the Sanctuary, showing column-shaped stalagmites in close nearness, the Sanctuary Dome reminding of a fantastic cathedral where the stalagmites seem to be...
