To continue with the karst theme I initiated yesterday, let me share a few photos today from a visit last week to Luray Caverns, a large show cave in Page County, Virginia near the town of Luray.
This was my first visit to Luray Caverns since I was a child. Probably it had been thirty years since I last trod these limestone halls… It was nice to go back. While it’s certainly very touristy, it’s a stunning cave, with big rooms and a diverse array of speleothems.
Tickets to the self-paced cave tour run $25 or so, which also includes entrance to several other touristy features on the site (a car museum, a labyrinth, that sort of thing).
Callen,
Just an FYI, there are many resources available now that can remove red-eye from photos 😉
That poor tot seems to have lost his geologists hammer, or was he not allowed to bring it into the cave?
my daughter just visited the caverns in august with her three kids-ages 6-9.they liked the cave,but also the play area.
