Description

Martin Ellis - 06/12/2019

From the entrance descend large boulders to an ancient wooden ladder that drops into a roomy chamber with a skylight. The ladder was not descend in July 2017 and there are no paths or statues in the first part of the cave. It is described as being a medium sized limestone cave with pagoda like stalagmites on the floor and 'tiered ponds' (gours). It has been developed for tourism.
