Armenia

Armenia
Zorats Karer. A Bronze Age necropolis, and perhaps astro observatory with giant standing stones arranged over a large plain. There are at least 223 of these megaliths, weighing up to 10 tonnes each.

Absolutely fantastic. I really like the shapes and colours of the stones and you have to wonder at the ingenuity of those who foound the stones and built this amazing place.

The location itself is just stunning. Beautifully composed and taken Diana!

Fantastic! Such megalithic sites need lots of specatacular landscape around, not parking lots and hordes of tourists;-)

A lovely wide landscape for these standing stones, Diana. Isn't it fascinating how many early societies erected variations on megaliths. And I fully agree with Gudrun!
