Photographer’s Note

under this cross,there's little icon showing some orthodox saint.. really can't remember which one :) under the icon is small water spring, and as people believe that water is sacred, they drink it no matter if it's sometimes obviously a bit brownish or yellow :) or even when those sanitary services warn people how water springs in backyard of St.Pantelejmon church are not chemicaly and bacteriogicaly OK, many people tend to believe these are lies :) and then, greatest serbian invention localy named 'inat' (untranslatable to any other language) just boosts up again, and so many believers praise their saints or god or whoever, and drink it and believe they feel better :)

apart from this, there's that legend how German allmighty medieval ruler, Barbarosa, stopped here with his Crusaders, drank water from these springs, and got healthy again, as well as his army too.
hm....
