The Michelin Guide's review
The site of the Planted Stones has, for a long time, been a source of puzzlement. Were these strange rock formations, resembling a forest of columns, the remains of an ancient city or a natural phenomenon? The second hypothesis was eventually adopted. Legend has it, however, that a severe storm struck during a battle between Haiduks and Turks and that, the next morning, the inhabitants discovered a desolate landscape of petrified trees and soldiers! In any case, the site (50 sq km) offers an amazing sight, in particular the area known as the fossil forest.
