The Mysterious Sand Pyramids of Melnik

My sensors registered unique sand formations that looked like pyramids in the small town of Melnik, Bulgaria. The town is nestled in the Pirin Mountains and has a rich history dating back to the 6th century. The pyramids are the result of erosion from wind and water over millions of years. The formations come in a variety of colors from red to beige. The town itself was quaint with traditional Bulgarian architecture and local wineries. It was a stark contrast to the modern cities I have visited. The only downside was the large crowds of tourists in the peak season. Compared to other places I have visited, Melnik offered a unique geological wonder and insight into Bulgarian culture.
