Our planet’s a great number of caves, but there are some which take your breath away.
We explored the surface of Mars, sent probes to all the edges of the Universe and even despite this we continue to find on Earth the corners, shocking in its beauty.
Among such places, of course, are the caves. We have collected ten of the most beautiful caves in the world, which you should definitely visit.
Orda, Russia
Ordinskaya cave is located on the South-Western outskirts of the village Horde Perm region, on the left Bank of the river Kungur. It is the longest underwater cave in Russia and the largest gypsum cave in the world. Length of the surveyed passages of the cave is 4600 meters. In this dry part of the cave is only 300 meters, and more than 4,000 meters under water.
The mammoth cave, Kentucky
The Mammoth cave is the world’s longest — known length of underground passages is about seven hundred miles, and unknown — about a thousand. Finds in the cave suggests that the first people there appeared two thousand years BC, although at that time our ancestors bears little resemblance to modern humans.
Son Dong, Vietnam
The cave is located near the border of Vietnam and Laos and is one of the three major underground systems in the world. Surprisingly, I found it quite recently, in 1991, when a local farmer Ho Khanh came across a hole in the ground, which left the Creek. The British cavers who first explored the cave, was startled – almost two and a half million years the cave was unknown to people.
Deer cave, Malaysia
Before was discovered son Dong, Deer cave was considered the deepest cave in the world. At the moment, the cave leads in the number of tourists visiting her each year in the dungeons down more than 25 thousand people. Such a flow is not surprising, because only here you can see the unique speleosanatory — stromatolites that are so bizarre that resemble strange fantastic animals.
Blue grotto, Italy
Imagine the deepest blue color in the underground galleries created by nature, and you will understand why the grottoes on the island of Capri is considered one of the most beautiful places in the world.
Cave Of Krubera, Georgia
Krubera is one of the deepest caves in the world, currently known, and is home to some strange creatures, like transparent fish.
Marble caves, Chile
Six thousand years of sea waves beat into underground storage marble in order to finally get such a stunning visual effect.
Antelope Canyon, Arizona
Sand and water can work wonders, especially if you devote a few thousands of years. Arizona canyons — an absolute miracle of nature that affects not only bizarre, but also the colors of the rocks, wedged in the spectrum from red to brown.
Ventional, Iceland
Ice caves in 99.9% of cases are made up of water, which is flowing through the ice. But in the case of Icelandic ice cave Ventional all happened otherwise — the hallways and rooms in the ice formed as a result of volcanic activity, which only added to the cave of beauty and fabulousness.
The Cave Of Swallows
In the morning flocks of birds flying in a spiral, gaining altitude until they reach the exit of the cave. In the evenings the Swifts return to the cave, and they swoop down in flocks of several dozen individuals until they reach the level of their nests in the cave. So it goes from day to day for thousands of years. The cave of Swallows has become a prototype for the James Cameron movie “Sanctum” and beckons adventurers from around the world. However, this is not surprising — after all, it is the only cave in the world in which you can jump with a parachute.
