Rock Island Three Dragons

The Khadjokh cliff is perhaps the most famous natural monument in Adygea. A narrow gorge, at the bottom of which rushes, bubbling and foaming, the White River is replete with bizarre rocks and grottoes.

At the very beginning of the gorge in the middle of the White there is a huge rock called the Three Dragons. For many years, the river with the skill of a real sculptor sharpened the rocks of the island, giving it finally a resemblance to a three-headed snake that emerged from the water. The head of a stone dragon guards the entrance to the gorge.

Of course, this place is associated with many legends. According to the most famous once lived in the cliff monstrous dragon. Convicted criminals were thrown into the canyon - the central head of the dragon devoured murderers, the left got traitors and traitors, and the right was content with thieves and robbers. Judges convicted and executed three innocent people. The gods were angry and turned the dragon into a stone statue.
