The Place of the Oracle. Since antiquity this outstanding geological site has been the seat of the oracle or prophetess. Pilgrims would journey here to have help with their futures. This is the place of the oracle, at a fissure in this amazing mountain system. It is now thought that the fissure gives off a gas, methane based, and was mind-altering, thus giving the oracle her power.

It certainly doesn't look very lush does it? Very very dry. I love the picture of the butterfly! Beautiful eye Mom!
