A mysterious 9000-year-old temple dedicated to leopards is an unique attraction from Uvda Valley. A total 16 leopards are beautifully carved on earth with ancient stones. All the leopards are directed towards East-the direction of sunrise and probably designating victory. Among the leopards one can also observe a prey, probably an ibex. Strangely, the head of ibex is directed towards west-the direction of sunset and perhaps indicating submissiveness. No one knows to whom the temple is dedicated and who built it, but for sure it happened to be a very special place. Thanks to the the remoteness of the site, the temple remained untouched by human hands for thousands of years, until it was rediscovered recently.
