Natural Bridge Caverns is one of the largest caverns in
Texas, the Limestone sediments are simply beautiful creations, something that I
had only seen on TV. I was a bit scared to get into the damp dark narrow cave!!
But once we were inside I was so mesmerized by these
beautiful and delicate stalactites and stalagmites formations that I forgot
about my fear!
It was damp and cold inside. The temperature in the caverns is
70 degrees F (21 degrees C) all year round with a relative humidity of 99%. The
structures are still growing so you are not supposed to touch them.
Here is a glimpse…
The Entrance...
The scariest part...
And here it begins...
The beautiful Needle like formations hanging from the roof of the cave...
The Columns...
The tallest column "Watch Tower" is 50 foot high...
Castle of the White Giants...
The Emerald lake...
The Fairy Castle...
Have you explored any caves?
Wow! What captivating caverns.

DeleteWow! That is just breathtaking! I haven't been to caves since elementary school... and I have a similar fear of being in small dark spaces. But as long as I can stand up straight I will probably be ok! Nature is so just amazing isn't it!?
