The mystery of the Valley of Ghosts in Crimea
5 Comments · Posted by Sergei Rzhevsky in Nature, Photos, Regions, Travel
The Valley of Ghosts is a numerous collection of stone sculptures on the slopes of the Southern Demerdzhi Mountain located near Alushta city.
The shapes of stone figures resemble human figures, animals, mysterious creatures, objects, and, depending on time of day and lighting, their images are changing. In addition thick fog is common there.
There are more than a hundred such “ghosts” in the valley. The Valley of Ghosts is Ukrainian natural monument of national importance. Photos by Dmitry Mordolff.

So spooky and so difficult to believe that it’s a natural formation
Just shows the creativity,and sense of humor of mother nature. Could be a sense of macabre too.
