Taking a deep dive to the caves and stalagmites of Moravia. The Moravian Karst contains over a thousand spaces and caves decorated with stalactites and stalagmites. The five major cave systems have guided tours, one of which has a motorboat ride along the underground Punkva River

More stalactites and stalagmites in the Drach Cave, four great caves in the island of Majorca which are connected to each other. One can experience a music concert on the subterranean Lake Martel where classical musicians play from illuminated rowing boats. The lake is named after the 19th Century French speleologist Édouard-Alfred Martel.

Concert. halls and musical boats - what an exceptional experience, as if the caves themselves weren't extraordinary on their own!!
Thank you for sharing cave and mountain stamps. A concert in a cave must be amazing, but what about the echoes?
I love the Jade Screen Peak stamp!
