Kungur Ice Cave, Show cave in Kungur, Russia
The cave system extends across 8,153 meters under the Sylva River bank, containing 48 chambers and 70 underground lakes with permanent ice formations.
The cave was first documented in 1703 during an expedition led by Remezov, a geographer from Tobolsk who received orders from Peter the Great.
The Druzhba Grotto received its name in 1937 when participants of the International Geological Congress gathered in this largest chamber of the cave system.
The cave offers three different guided routes ranging from 1.5 to 2 kilometers, with tours lasting between 80 and 90 minutes through illuminated pathways.
Limestone formations inside the cave create patterns similar to snowflakes that change size throughout the year, reaching maple leaf dimensions in late winter.
