Đavolja Varoš, Natural monument in Radan Mountain, Serbia

The geological formation contains 202 stone towers with andesite caps, reaching heights between 2 and 15 meters above the mountainous terrain.

Scientific research of the formations started in 1955 by Tomislav Rakićević, leading to their protection as a state entity in 1959.

Local narratives tell of a devil who cast a spell on a water source, causing wedding guests to transform into stone formations.

The site welcomes 50,000 visitors annually and features two restaurants near the entrance, along with a wooden church dedicated to Saint Petka.

The location contains two mineral springs: Devil's Water with high acidity levels and Red Well, both flowing beneath the rock formations.
