9 Must-Visit Natural Wonders Around the Pink Lake: The Fourth One Will Leave You Breathless

4. **The Ethereal Light Caves**

Benevolently hidden under the surface of the ground is an amazing system of caverns displaying the most magnificent light show found in nature. Unique geological formations found in these limestone caverns provide amazing patterns as sunlight passes through tiny cave ceiling vents. Massive crystal formations in the main chamber—known as the Cathedral Room—scatter light in rainbow patterns across the cave walls. The way the caves interplay with natural light during the day makes this site very remarkable. Usually between 11 AM and 2 PM, sunbeams pierce different holes to create ethereal light columns that seem to dance over the blackness. Mineral deposits on the cave walls themselves glitter like many small stars when lit, producing an unearthly environment that astounds guests. The cavernous acoustics are equally amazing; natural amphitheatres within produce eerie echoes and resonances. The temperature stays the same all year long, providing a refreshing respite from the desert heat and amazing picture chances capturing the interaction of light and shadow in this underground marvel.
