Geography and Environment: Within the Mesozoic limestones; it probably combines with the Kizilin Cave; which is 2 km further. The small underground creek outflowing from the cave contains mineral water. There are small and big lakes; one of them with a size of 75x40 m. Explored by MAD in 1965; it was then opened for touristic activities by the governorship. During the exploration carried out in 1965; it was found that it is 2000 m long and it ends up with a big lake. However; the level of lake was lowered due to excessive withdrawal of water for the irrigation of the fields in the vicinity; exposing new galleries. During the second exploration carried out in 1999; the lake was dived; and it was found that there is a very large hall ahead of the branch during the first diving at 8 m. Then it was dived to 22 m; and a large hall was found; which is approximately 30x30 m; and 15 m high. It has two separate entrances; and the ceiling and bottom are covered by a very thick layer of silt. |
