- Blue Mountains and Jenolan Caves-


The Three Sisters (you can see the blue tint of the moutains in the distance)

The forest is very thick

 

Lots of green

The mountains are very high

Entrance road to Jenolan Caves

The road passes right through one of the caves

Looking upwards towards a rock formation

An entrance to the caves

Limestone formation

Stalactites

This area is sometimes used as a pulpit. People occasionally choose to get married in this chamber of the caverns

These formations take several thousand years to develop as water drips through the limestone rock.

This is called the "Cathedral." our guide played a classical CD which filled this room with some pretty impressive sound. (The ladder is used to change the lightbulbs.)

Another formation

A wall of crystal

This column has broken because the floor of the cave is sinking at a rate of under a centimeter every one hundred years.
