The story

Story · The Sphinx

  • en

You're standing by the Sphinx, more than two thousand metres up in the Bucegi Mountains of Romania. All around you is Bucegi Natural Park, and this rock is part of a whole cluster of oddly shaped stones known as Babele. Take a good look at the rock in front of you. Can you see the face? It doesn't work from everywhere. The head only appears when you look from just the right angle. So feel free to wander around it until the image suddenly clicks.
