Orlova Chuka is the second-longest cave in Bulgaria – over 13 km! 👌 The temperature inside stays constant, around 14°C all year round, so in summer you go in to cool off, and in winter – to warm up. 🌡️
What impressed me most was the so-called Concert Hall. The acoustics there are so pure that music echoes like a prayer. 👏 You just stand there, silent, listening to the cave breathe.
The cave was discovered in 1941 by a shepherd, and today about 3 km of it are lit up and open to visitors. 🔦⛏️ The stalactites, stalagmites, and unique formations are the kind of thing that leaves you standing there, jaw dropped. 🙆♂️
A little tip from me: dress a bit warmer and wear shoes that won't mind slippery, damp rock. 👌
