The beauty of underground caves. Cave Emine-Bair-Khosar. Crimea. (2) (series)

The cave Emine-Bair-Khosar - 1460 meters, the depth of 125 meters the square.

The name means «the Well of the Emine mountain slope».

 

Age cave is more than 10 million years. Most of the time there reigned water. It raged in stone cavities, dripping pure cascading over the walls, loud dripping from the vaults, slowly creating its underground beauty. Before you get into the cave, the water goes through several tens of meters rocks, feasting on the surface of carbon dioxide and acquiring the ability to dissolve limestone. Then he washes of calcium carbonate - that is necessary for the formation of sinter forms. Thus are born the stone icicles - stalactites. Along with them, where the drops fall, there stalagmites. Grow together, stalactite and stalagmite form stalagnates.

 

The man who appreciates the beauty of nature and the world is much richer and happier than those who do not notice this.
