Orda Cave, Underwater gypsum cave in Perm Krai, Russia.

The cave system extends over 5.1 kilometers beneath the western Ural Mountains, with 4.8 kilometers of submerged passages containing mineral-rich formations.

Scientists and explorers started excavating the cave system in 1969, leading to continuous discoveries of new passages and geological formations within its depths.

Local residents share tales of the Lady of Orda Cave, a figure from regional folklore said to dwell within the submerged limestone passages.

Divers must wear dry suits and carry specialized equipment to navigate the cave's narrow passages, where water temperatures remain at 4 degrees Celsius.

The cave's gypsum-filtered water creates exceptional underwater visibility extending to 50 meters, making it a destination for international diving expeditions.
