The natural reservation site Dragon's Garden ([RO] Gradina Zmeilor, [HU] Sárkányok kertje) from Galgaul Almasului is located in Salaj County, in the Western Carpathians. This natural playground is made up of interesting and unusual sandstone formations, an ensemble of 10-12 m high towers with strange figures cut in sandstone by the wind and water erosion. The crumbling of the Miocene conglomerates and gritstone generated a specific landscape. Young oak-trees and strange shaped formations of sandstone, with insertions of gravel and stone made this ensemble of high formations. From the village of Galgau Almasului turn left across from house no. 126, and drive a short distance to a wooden cabin, where you can park your car, get out and wander amongst the rocks. |
