    A very well preserved cave. Accessed using an elevator which brings you 25meter down. From there, there is a flat walkway accessible with wheelchair and stroller. The walkway is 300meters long and gives a fantastic view of all stalagmites and stalactites and the still visible running underground river. A visit well worth!

    What an excellent cave system. A lift takes you down to the 300mtr walkway. A wheelchair friendly place to visit 👍🏻. It’s quite dark inside with minimal lighting but that makes it very atmospheric. You get a handset guide in English so you can do the tour at your own pace. Hardly anyone there today which made for a brilliant experience. You can take photos but no flash is allowed. Caves only opened in 2010.
