The first home of man was a cave. And as I type out this information on my computer I realize, that the walls of the cave were also man’s first blackboard. Much has been preserved in caves, many stories have been told, and civilizations have moved forward. And even today, when we have come so far that we have to squint our eyes to take reconnaissance of the past, many of us are still exploring the gnarled walls of caves for a sign from the past.<\/p>\n

Here is a list of 5 famous caves :<\/p>\n

1. Eisriesenwelt Cave, Austria<\/span><\/h2>\n

This cave, known to be the longest ice cave in the world, is, in fact, 42 km long with only the first 1km covered in ice. The rest of the cave is limestone. The first kilometer or so, is also the only area open to tourists. Variation in the direction and flow of the wind throughout the year ensures the formation of ice year round.<\/p>\n

The walk up to the caves is arduous, but the magnificent views more than make up for it. Once you reach the cave, the feeling of being surrounded by ice, and the dark misty atmosphere imparts to the whole experience an eerie feel.<\/p>\n

Photography is strictly prohibited which is a good idea considering that such an experience needs to be lived first and the lack of artificial lighting anyway make amateur photography difficult.<\/p>\n
