Grotta Castellana

From this opening the Grotto(limestone cave) extends into the depths of the earth.
The total length of the cave is not know but the public is allowed 3kms into the cave system taking you 74 meters underground. It was a great walk and took us about 2 hours.
Amazing stalactites and stalagmites line the caves and closer to the surface you see more colorful ones.
Down in the depths they are mostly white limestone.
Throughout the caves you see many interesting formations. This is the Cyclopes
