This cave shows nature at its most fascinating. However, some of the human additions need work. I liked the various colors to subtly highlight the stalactites, but the Christmas-style lights detract..... more

Lovely tourist attraction Spot not too far from the hotel I was staying at. You begin by entering through a garden where you see lovely vegetations, butterflies and birds. As you enter you see amazing formations of stones. Its not too long and the walk inside is pretty easy. Toward the end there is an ice-cream and gift shop to purchase souvenirs. I really loved taking pictures of the butterflies and flowers as I sat in nature outside the cave. Its a lovely quick tourist spot and a great stop to purchase souvenirs as they have great selections.

It's really cool to see. The price is roughly $12 - $14 (Maybe $10 American & $11 - $12 Canadian) There a sign and a small hut to the left of the parking. Pay there and proceed up the path. There is nice flowers along the way to the entrance. Please be mindful of your step. Steps maybe a little slippery. Once you're in it's laid out pretty well. Just follow the arrows and the areas are decently lit. Once you exit, you'll be by another building and that's where you can buy souvenirs, get some great Okinawan ice cream, and maybe enjoy a meal. There is a restaurant section (still was closed because of covid) and it looks pretty good. Had an enjoyable time here and very cool seeing the formations underground. 😱👍👍
