Hanging stone
The famous Hanging Stone in the Ergaki Nature Park. According to the legend, when this block falls down, the Sleeping Sayan, the ancient giant athlete Svyatogor, will wake up, and either new times will begin, or the apocalypse. Nobody knows for sure. But, perhaps, both of them at once.
Although the crowds of fatalistic tourists the Hanging Stone try to budge the Hanging Stone every year, so far nothing comes of it, so global changes are not expected in the near future ...
However, just in case, we advise you to take a photo against its background, who knows what can happen... :)
