Montserrat Mountain

<< < (2/6) > >>

Ana:
As anecdote, about three years ago my family and I went to Montserrat and in taking the funicular to go down it lost power supply for about three or four times making it accelerating obstreperously, luckily the brakes worked, but I was about to tell everybody let’s get out and down the mountain by ourselves!  :lol:

Now, Montserrat (the Magic Mountain) as some call it here, is indeed a beautiful place, there is a sense of peace and magnificence difficult to describe, in contrast specially for those of us who live in cities, it would be great to have an EE session there!

Elisa:
From  my house in the contryside I have a superb view of the  mountain, it makes me feel relax and calm.

I didn't know that there were so many mysteries associated with it, and UFO spotters too?!  :rolleyes: But I can understand why. It would be great if we could rent a space in the monastery there and have an EE meeting!

Here are a few more images

Those look like the rock formations at Belogradchik, Bulgaria, which were candidates in the "New 7 Wonders of Nature" campaign. Unfortunately, the Belogradchik mountains did not make it to the finals. You can see some pictures:
this one this one this one and finally that one.

Hi. Lots of splendid sights and locations in Spain IMO. The pictures of Montserrat on the wiki-page looks nice. Santa Cova Chapel in the mountain is inspiring.  :)
Alot of historical value as well (probably alot of "secret/esoteric history" attached to many of those places). To name a few I have been to I can recommend Guadeleste and on the way from Alicante to Gibraltar (which is an awesome location as well, with cheeky monkeys and all, though it's actually not Spain but UK territory) there is a places for inhabitance carved into the rocks like some of the native american ones in U.S.A., but still used as homes today. I can't remember the name.
 :cool:

The rocks in the Belogradchik mountains look crazy, Madara Knight. Nice with the medieval walls in between them. I bit such sights had a alot of significance as well in those days.
