Roadside religious stations

I'm not really sure why there are so many of these religious figures along the roads. In this area you can't drive more than a km without seeing one. This is one we saw during our hike in Dije National Park. It was in a little village called Podmoli. We were able to stop for a little lunch and coffee and beer at the hospoda (pub). There are many biking and walking trails in this area of the country. It's conceivable to do an entire walking tour, going from town to town, staying in pensions on your tour. It's also possible to wrap a little wine tasting into your walking tour. We didn't do this but it was nice to know we could.

We're spending one more night at the Pension Zov. Lovely place. Time for an afternoon nap.
