AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE : Here's an excellent aerial view of one of the more mysterious sights in the Transylvania region of Romania, compliments of content creator and drone pilot ridethefog. They are called the Pyramids of Șona, in a small village of the same name in Brasov County, near the town of Făgăraș. It's a group of eight piles of mud up to 30 meters (about 100 ft.). A good deal of mystery and legend surrounds their origins, some of which goes back to the founding of the village here by German colonists about 700 years ago.
