What does this rock in the Bucegi Mountains of Romania remind you of? Yup, that's right! The Egyptian Sphinx 😊 Every year, on November 28, hundreds of people meet at the Sphinx at sunset, when the gentle rays of sun go down forming a magical pyramid around the statue, which is believed to emit positive energy ✨ But this weirdly shaped rock is object of many other legends. Some say that the Egyptian and the Romanian Sphinxes are somehow linked by a tunnel of time and that the Egyptian were inspired by the shape of this rock. Some people claim that an ancient civilization carved this rock to represent some sort of supreme god. Others say that the Sphinx on top of Bucegi Mountains is evidence of the existence of an alien civilization that would have left behind several constructions, including this one 😊 I love to learn this kind of legends 😊 and you? #nature #romania #bucegi
