Location: It is located 3 km south of the Kücük Sasa Village; next to the Sabanpinari Fountain. It was developed on the base of a depression situated on a ridge diverting the basins of the Domya Creek and the Porsuk Brook. It can be reached from a road deviating from the town of Bozan on the Eskisehir Muhalcik motorway and interconnecting the villages of Circir-Agachisar-Sasa-Yalimkaya (Domya).
Geography and Environment: The entrance is like a -6 m deep shaft. Further down; with an inclined base; it ends up at -46 m. The bottom is covered with debris and blocks at the beginning; and with sand; pebbles and debris towards the end. The narrowing final zone ends up with a closed siphon filled with water. Small lakes were formed in the final zone. It is a semi-active sinkhole.
