Description
Part of the cave from the entrance to the Hall of Giants (Sieň obrov) is formed in dolomite and dolomitic limestones with impressive limestone layers. The back parts of the cave, like the Pearl Passage (Chodba perál), the Great Hall (Veľká sieň), and the Mirror Hall (Zrkadlová sieň), are located in pure limestone areas. The Great Canyon (Veľký kaňon) passageway was formed as a result of tectonic faults which also helped shape large chambers in the back part of the cave, discovered by Rožnava cavers in 1964. Like the other caves in the Slovak Karst zone, it is on the UNESCO List of the World Natural Heritage.
