​“I loved looking at the valley from the ancient city walls.  I took a picture inside the beehive tomb and had all these light flares in a dark room.  The legend is that they might be ghosts.”

strange light orbs that our guide told us might have some sort of mysterious connection to the past
another view of what some say might be a supernatural event???
