The Lena’s Stone Forest is one of the most beautiful natural wonders of Russia.

Known also as Lena’s Stone Pillars, this incredible rock formation is not only beautiful to look at, it’s also holds important information on the formation of the organic world. Fossils from various organisms date back to the Cambrian era.(This according to the geological dating, I believe...no 10,000 year young earthers are in consideration. L.)

Colossal stone statues rise up from the earth and pierce the sky, like giants frozen in time. The pillars are grouped together and stretch for tens of kilometers, along the river banks.

The stone statues are in a part of Siberia not yet touched by civilization and it will take you roughly four days, plus a $500 fee to reach it, from Moscow. It will all have been worth it.

"The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth His handywork" (Psalm 19.1).

"Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said...where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding. Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it? Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof" (Job 38.4-6).
