These ‘living rocks’ in Romania are able to grow and even move

What is the first thing that comes to your mind about 
Romania? If your answer is not casinos, prostitution or chowder, you probably know that the Eastern European country is known for its wide variety of rocks.
The area known especially for its rocks is Costesti, a small town north of Bucharest and the home of extremely unique rocks that are hard to find elsewhere.
But these rocks are not only extraordinarily beautiful, they are also able to develop a "life of their own." They are able to grow and even move just like living creatures, which is how they got the nickname "living rocks." There are very few studies on these rocks, called trovants in Romanian, but they have attracted the attention of many geologists and tourists.
