Visitors to the Bastei pass through an opening in the rocks at the end
of the Bastei Bridge. The Bastei is a rock formation rising about 650 feet
above the Elbe River (or about 1,000 feet above sea level) in the
Elbe Sandstone Mountains near Rathen, Germany. The jagged rocks of
the Bastei were formed by water erosion over one million years ago.
Additional photos from The Bastei are in my Cities gallery.
