Hwa-Am Cave Near Jeongseon 11/04/2009
This write up starts up by saying..."The first theme cave of Korea..." Quite honestly, this is the first theme cave any of us had EVER seen! This was the last thing we had scheduled to do on our long weekend; we had almost decided not to tour this cave. Our thought was "if you have seen one cave, you have seen them all". Right? Wrong. I am SO glad we decided to drive on and drag our overly tired children through this amazing cave. It started off on a tram of sorts taking us UP the mountain. We used the 'last toilet'. We thought this cave experience would be another of the same - guided tour, they turn off the lights at some point to show you how dark it is. Blah, blah, blah.... Instead, this was a self guided tour and we felt like we were on a tour at Disney World! We always enjoy a little 'Konglish'. OK, this is great - I don't think there is another place on this earth where you can be in the middle of a cave and get a phone call. Look at that, I have ALL my bars!!

The 'natural' cave part of this tour was amazing. "The natural cave is the biggest cave in Asia. There are natural cave formations comprised of stalactites and stalagmites in interesting shapes such as the Virgin Mary and the Buddha. " We were in awe. I wish I could have taken a picture that would do this place justice. The natural cave was at least as big as 3 football fields, maybe more. Commentskathie Tue, 10 Nov 2009 06:18:56 Very nice!
