Thank you I discover the people after taking the pictures, and it was good surprise as it allows imagining the huge size of this cave.

Salut vttiste, La plus belle grotte du monde, le mot n'est pas trop fort
J'ai eu la chance, il y a seize ans de ça, de la pratiquer en "pirate" avec le fils d'un des inventeurs...
Presque dix heures aller-retour au paradis
Mes potes spéléos ayant pratiqué énormément de grottes de par le monde m'ont confirmé sa beauté exceptionnelle et unique.
@plus.
PS: Tu comprendras que je ne la pas car ayant vu les 90 autres % je ne peux raisonnablement pas...

Salut !

Merci pour ton commentaire Il va falloir que je m'active alors pour prendre des photos des 90% grottes restantes !

Vraiment chanceux d'avoir pu visiter cette grotte en spéléo !! J'avais fait l'aven des Lauriers "en pirate" comme tu dis, la grotte est excessivement grande et belle également, mais je suppose que la grotte des Demoiselles est autrement plus charmante à visiter dans ce contexte non purement touristique.

Latin America is one of my dream I wanted to go to Peru last summer but as I started to move to Czech Republic and to work there, it was not possible to take holidays... I wanted to do the Inca trail to Machu Pichu, visit lot of places like Lima, Iquitos, Cuzco and of course Titicaca lake ! But it's only delayed because I still want to visit, and why not Bolivia ! This part of the world interest me a lot

Machu pichu is a place i would like to go too, I went to Lima 6 years ago, but I couldn´t see a lot of the city becouse I only went there for an event.
In the Titicaca lake you can visit the islands call the moon and the sun where u can find ruin from the same inca period like Machu pichu, and some ceremonial places. And near the lake there also a place call Tiawanaku (perhaps you heard about it?). And in other cities here, like Potosi and Oruro, you can enter the mines, and a place call "la casa de la moneda" wich is where coins were made to send them to Europe in the colony.
And I also can tell you more about places to visit here. The good thing about Bolivia is that you can travel around with few monetary expenses, and now you have a friend who can guide you through.

Astonishing! I can't find, where is up, where is down or where is the lowest place... Only nature can make such perspective! And it needs great abilities to show it on the photo. Greatly great photo!

Thank you If you take attention in full view, it's possible to see people, so you can imagine the size of the place

Yes this cave is really amazing, and the place around this cave is also marvelous (waterfalls, gorgeous nature, possibility to climb, to go on cano, mountain bike, trekking trip etc) It's my Cévennes !
