    Very beautiful place, with fantastic mountains and landscape. There isn't a tourist information or some locals, shops... but it is very nice, natural, without tourists. There is just a line next the road where to park the car, but the colours are fantastic.

    Ohh boy!! What a delectable and mouth watering flavor! With swirls of peppermint, this candy of sugary sugar is shaped like a large fish hook. Perfect for hooking me by the cheek, scaled, gutted and washed to be prepared on a silver platter served to a table on top of the Caucaus Mountains with stunning, breathtaking views of the birthplace of jolly ol' Santa Claus and Rudolf the Red LED blinking nosed reindeer! Little known fun fact, these two perennial super stars were born here and later emigrated to the North Pole due to discrimination and racism they faced in their hometown of Candycane Mountains. Birth records will confirm this but neither of these individuals has died, leaving scarce traces of their existence. I could be shot and killed for disclosing this information. Please pray for me and my blabbering soul.
