Stone Wedding, Megalithic sanctuary in Medovo, Bulgaria
The Stone Wedding features stone pillars and rock formations extending across 50 acres, with structures reaching heights of 10 meters near Kardzhali.
The geological formations emerged through volcanic activity 40 million years ago, followed by continuous natural erosion from water, wind, rain, and sunlight.
Local tales tell of a wedding party turned to stone when a father grew envious of his son's bride, leaving only the groom who begged to join them.
The stone formations stand at coordinates 42.4113 latitude and 25.2113 longitude, making them accessible for visitors traveling from the village of Medovo.
Mineral deposits within the rock structures create varied color patterns throughout the formations, enhancing their natural appearance against the landscape.
