Videnitza Peak

Rating:
(0)

Videnitsa Peak is located two kilometers from the village of Chala. The Turkish name for the peak is Gjoztepe. This name comes from its height, 1652 meters, and the view from the top in all directions. On the peak you will find large boulders and ancient walls. There is speculation that on this peak was located the temple of Dionysius used by the Thracian tribes of Beci. In ancient history there was a rotunda with colonnades and round opening in the roof and an alter for sacrifices. The ancient walls and other relics which can be found on Videnitsa are most likely from this temple.
