We arrived, there is no one, only a well-fed young man "crushes the mass" on the bench (in the photo). They didn't wake me up, but walked right past me and into the cave. A frisky kid came from somewhere, introduced himself as Cesar, 6 years old. He said that the group was with a guide inside and we should wait. They didn't wait, they didn't go deep. Anyone who has ever been to caves will not discover anything new for themselves. I gave the kid 100 rubles. At the exit, the "well-fed" one came to his senses and began to show the little one that he had let him into the cave without money, as I understood from their Abkhaz. We wanted to sit on a bench, and they told us that you can sit on a bench for money. They left with relief. The general message is that nature has given people beauty and they are trading it as if they are not themselves. The main principle is to make money and do nothing. Separately, I would like to mention two exhausted bears languishing in a tiny enclosure. They didn't come close, so as not to get upset.
It's interesting how Yandex gives this cave 5 stars, with so many negative reviews.
An interesting place. The ticket price is 500 rubles for an adult. children under 7 years old are free of charge. A cave in which a river flows along the bottom, in places the depth reaches 5-9 meters, the water temperature is 13 degrees. the guide said that you can swim)))). The movement through the cave passes over wooden floors, it is slippery. The vaults in the cave sometimes reach a height of half a meter, you have to walk with a goose step or on your knees. They give out boots. There are bats in the cave. We were at the moment when the lights were turned off, I was lighting my way with my phone, so I didn't have time for photos. There was no one else besides our family, in general, the tour was just for us.
We really liked it because we were ready for this cave. Boots only from 41p, it happens that they leak, without them, if there is a lot of water, it will be hard. The flooring is homemade, there are no railings, it is slippery in places, the lighting is bad to walk, especially if there is a large group, it is better to take your flashlight. You can only get through somewhere on your haunches.
But all this creates an atmosphere. And in the cave in the middle of the way you can swim, which we took advantage of! Very cool! Thanks a lot to all the boys who organize excursions!!!
