The Rocks of the river Prut represent a chan of limestone formations laid on a distance of about 200km. They are declared to be monuments of nature and they are protected by law. They are composed from corals, molluscs, seashells and seaweeds. 15-20 million years ago there was the Sarmatic sea on these places. Even currently you can see the traces of animals from those times. This is the only monument in Moldova that allow us to study that fortune stoned in time. This chain has the same genesis as the coralifferous chain from Australia that is under completely under water.
