RITAM SRBIJE / RHYTHM OF SERBIA

DEVIL’S TOWN Devil’s Town is an unusual rock for- mation, created by soil erosion, that's located near the town of Kuršumlija in South-eastern Ser- bia. Local legend has it that the strangely shaped rocks are the re- mains of a wedding party that was instantaneously petrified by the devil, as punishment. According to another legend, however, it was a witch who lived there that turned everyone who didn’t do as she said to rock. There are a total of 202 of these strange rock formations in Devil’s Town, varying between two and 15 metres in height. Đavolja varoš Đavolja varoš je neobična sten- ska formacija stvorena erozijom tla u blizini grada Kuršumlije, na ju- goistoku Srbije.

Dru- ga legenda kaže da je tamo žive- la veštica koja je pretvorila u ste- ne one koji nisu uradili ono što je rekla. Ukupno postoje 202 kame- ne formacije visoke između dva i 15 metara.
