Rows of skulls lined up in this dark tunnel with a silhouette seen in the background. An image that makes you stop and think about the passing of time.

Juliana King Those skulls are lined up so neatly it almost looks like the tunnel was built around them. The stonework on the walls looks really old, must be centuries.
Владимир Макаров The masonry of the walls is rough, but it holds strong; it is clear that the mortar between the stones dates back to the times when everything was kneaded by hand. Three hundred to four hundred years at least.
Μιχάλης Αθανασίου Where exactly is this place? Is it open to visitors and when do they hold services?
Пётр Богданов The masonry is old, but the skulls are like a ruler.
Alexandru Radu Aș vrea să văd locul ăsta cu ochii mei, pare impresionant.
