There is an unusual natural attraction near the town of Sebeş - the Red ravine (Rapa Rosie). Erosion and water gave the hillside an unusual shape. 800-meter wall consists of clay, gravel, quartz sand and sandstone, everything has a red tint. If you come in the morning or evening, then the wall will be red. We were there in the middle of the day and did not see such color.

Like near many other natural attractions, archaeological excavations were carried out here and the remains of Coţofeni culture were found. As well as dinosaur bones of the early Miocene period (~15-23 million years ago).
