“Mountain monoliths hold powerful energy – they’ve witnessed much in this world” 

Lada was one of the first places I visited on my journey through this region. I was amazed to learn that this stone massif has a history spanning thousands of years. The site is surrounded by legends, and many women come here to make wishes. 

I appreciate that the sanctuary is accessible – it’s easy to reach, and from its summit, the view is breathtaking. 

It’s best to come on weekdays or early in the mornig – here are fewer tourists, and you have a better chance to enjoy the quiet beauty of the mountains, the rustling trees, and the cool breeze. 

But for me, any mountain monolith holds powerful energy. They’ve existed for millions of years and have witnessed so much of the world.
