Yuquan Cave, which took 300,000 years to build

#AprilGoodDestinations2025 The stalactites are only one tenth of a centimeter each year. It is hard to imagine that the masterpieces behind Yuquan Cave took at least 300,000 years to create. Gyokusen Cave is known as the "largest underground art museum in Southeast Asia". It has the largest stalactites in Okinawa and the second largest in Japan. Currently, only one-fifth of the entire stalactite cave has been opened. It is 5 kilometers long and cool inside, making it very comfortable in summer. The spectacular stalactites are mainly composed of calcium carbonate and other minerals. They are formed over time through repeated movements of squeezing, uplifting, erosion, and slowly form stalactites. In this dark place, I listen to the echoes of water drops and human voices, and quietly watch the wonders of nature. Be sure to visit the souvenir shop, there are many rare products.
