Description

Herbert Daniel Gebauer - 15/07/2016

A spacious rock shelter (10 m wide, 3 m high, 7 m "deep") developed with the help of lateral erosion and corrosion of limestone. Some fast growing tufa formationes are found around a central boss (speleothem) rising from moss covered and decaying rimstone pools. The rock shelter is situated at a walking distance of some 5 minutes downstream of Bhaishiri (Baisari, Bhaisari, Bhaishari) village and about 20 m above the right (eastern) bank of Kali Gandaki River.
