city. Two crystal-clear rivers meander
through the city, which is encircled

rock formations and caves.
Two crustal movements
of the earth took place about 200

the limestone sediments out of the
sea bottom. They were forced upwards
more than 200 meters to the surface.
This karst formation was moulded through
many years of erosion by the wind
and rain to became the hills and rocks
with unusual shapes . There are many
complete karst (Limestone sites),
which are of high scientific value
and tourist value.
