Geography and Environment: The geological unit forming the cave is the Upper Cretaceous limestone. It looks like a narrow tunnel enlarged due to the solution of a somewhat big fault in the entrance. The branches were formed in the faults opening to the main branch. The water inflowing to the cave; which is an active sinkhole; formed steps conforming with the faults. At the bottom of the cave; there is a lake; which gathers the water inflowing into the cave during the rainy season. |
