Sweeeeeet caaaaaaave fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiind ud83dudd0eud83dudef5ud83dudca8ud83dudd25ud83cuddf9ud83cuddf7nnI was riding out in the middle of nowhere on my way to the next location marked on my map when all of a sudden I noticed out of the corner of my eye a very small sign with the Turkish word for cave... Magarasi ud83eudd29ud83eudd29ud83eudd29nnThis cave was not marked on Google Maps (Until now... Added courtesy of yours truly ud83dude09) and was not very far out of my way...... Sooooo of course I had to go up the mountainside to check out what the real story was!nnThis place was totally bananas! I'm absolutely elated that I made the decided to make it up here to check this place out because it had some of my favorite cave things! Fossilized and non fossilized bone remnants from bison, jackals, and even ancient mammoths! ud83eudd2fud83eudd2fud83eudd2fnnI love when caves are lit up with different color high intensity lights because you can really see the differentiation in these stalactites and stalagmites. Without these colored LED lights this cave would have still been very beautiful but since it is a dead cave it really does not have very much color to it. Honestly this was a really fantastic treat ud83dudc68‍ud83cudfa8ud83cudfa8⛰ufe0fud83dudc4cnnWhen I pulled up to this cave there was a group of about seven kids who were high school aged (or younger) and apparently in charge of running the place... Not one word of English was spoken but they were very friendly and quite curious about my motorcycle and where I was coming from I'm the United States. They charged me the 5 Lira entrance fee and proceeded to give me the full nickel tour in Turkish ud83dude02ud83eudd23ud83dude02nnYou never know what you're in for when you're on the adventuuuure ud83dudef5ud83dudca8ud83dudd25ud83dudd25ud83dudd25 I'm so hAaAaAaAappy I kept my eyes peeled and found this little cavern out in the middle of nowhere by sheer luck... Or was it coincidence? You decided ud83cudf40ud83cudf20ud83eudd1e

Good

An exceptional experience to see inside a cave

Interesting landscape and definitely worth a visit, though it is not a very big place so you will be done pretty quickly.

Great place not too hard to find, lots of steps to entrance! Takes 15 mins to look at all so a great Pitt stop on the way or way back to pammukale
