“ Wonders of Ukraine”
The Stone village
It is the Ukrainian
Stonehenge. You can visit it in Zhytomyr region, not far from Kiev – about 250
km.
Why is this place known as
the Stone Village?
There is a legend about this
place. A pilgrim once visited this village and asked for some food. The rich
men listened, then handed him a package, but when the pilgrim opened his gift,
he saw nothing but a stone. He was very angry. When the pilgrim left the
village, all the houses turned to stones. Nobody knew the pilgrim was the Lord
God Himself. On one of the stones the Lord God left his tracks.
