The beauty of the caves



 We were lucky to visit the caves, which are located in the Crimea. The result of such a trip absolutely staggered us. It is hard to select the coming  words, which could describe in full measure all the beauty of the caves. We had such an impression, that got in so fantastic a world. I have never seen the stalactites and stalagmites before. They are a magnificent, exciting sight, having been created by the Mother-Nature herself. Of course, it is appropriate to note that without human's interference and efforts, which were spent on the research and equipment - the excursion route- railing, lighting, concrete tracks - it would be impossible for numerous tourists to view all the beauty for the first-hand. We visited the Marmorate cave, which is considered to be one of the most beautiful caves in Europe and the Emine Bayir Hosar. The name " Marmorate" comes due to the marmorate limestone . The world of the cave has been created over a long time in a full darkness  with the help of the water. And now, we can get to it. The cold air, wet walls and floor are good , in a hot summer weather,even for an hour, to dip into the cool gloom of the cave ( the temperature around +5C ). The length of the fit out excursion route in the Marmorate cave comes to 1,5 km with a  depth of 60 m.
