A relatively short-lengthened but beautiful cave with small shrines to the goddess Kannon inside. Along the way you will encounter a number of narrow and low passages, so be prepared that you will have to bend and squat. Drops of water from above will also not let you come out clean and dry, so I recommend to prepare an appropriate clothing.

limestone cave near famous touring spot “Geibikei” (boat tour). Narrow cave, up and down stairs a lot. It is about 30min explore walk. It would be too hard for elderly parson or toddler. Admission fee is 1100yen for adult. If you like fossils, enjoyable.

Amazing cave system. Granted it was my first time in a real cave. It takes about 20 min to travel through. I’m 183cm tall and I was squatting most of the way. Don’t wear a large backpack inside! You won’t fit!Half way through there is a fork in the system. One way is for children and elderly, the other is for people who want a challenge. Go down/left for the easy way, and up/right for the hard route. Awesome experience. The ticket was around 10$ per adult.

I loved it here, it is a beautiful cave with fossils hidden in the walls. It takes about 30 minutes to walk through the entire cave depending on how many photographs you take along the way. There are a few narrow sections and quite a few stairs too! It might be wise to take a hard hat with you as it could be easy to hit your head in a few places.

It is a a cave you can enjoy with your family. But it is too expensive. It takes about 20 min.
