This rock stands in the middle of a plain and even today geologists are baffled about its origins. No wonder then that it is subject to many legends. One of them says that a great hero crushed a serpent by hurling the rock on top of it. The rock is covered with gravity and apparently there should be some ancient Tibetan inscriptions, though we didn't spot them. At the top is an Ovoo, which can be reached by a sturdy rope.
