Marble Cave

The Marble Cave extends 1260 meters through underground passages filled with stalactites, stalagmites, and other mineral formations that cover the chamber walls. The cave's structure includes different sections connected by corridors, each displaying distinct geological characteristics and rock formations.

A local resident named Ahmet Asllani discovered the cave entrance in 1966 while tending his garden. This accidental discovery led to scientific investigations and the eventual opening of the site to visitors.

The cave holds significance for the local community as a natural landmark that represents the region's geological heritage and connection to the landscape. It serves as a meeting point where locals and visitors alike develop awareness of the area's underground world.

Visits are conducted through organized tours led by trained guides who explain the safe routes through the passages. Proper lighting and equipment are provided to make navigating the underground sections comfortable and secure.

The cave is home to bat populations that form part of the underground ecosystem and are monitored by researchers. These creatures of darkness provide insights into the biological diversity of this hidden world beneath the surface.
