## Description

At 30 kilometers from the city of Cahul there is a chain of hills that the locals called “Colinele de aur” \("Golden Hills"\) due to the reddish-yellow hue of the clay that came to the surface. These attracted the attention of several researchers who discovered geological and paleontological vestiges here that testify to the past of the places. Skeletal remains of mastodons, camels, rhinos and other creatures were found here. Travelers can stop to admire this natural monument, or even climb it and admire the village of Văleni and Lake Beleu visible from atop the "Golden Hills.
