Description: |

Batu Cermin Cave discovered in 1951 by the archaeologists as
well as the Dutch pastor, Theodore Verhoven. Cave has an area
over 19 hectares and 75 meters high. From research conducted
Theodore Verhoven, Batu Cermin Cave is one of the cave under the
sea which is then lifted to the surface. The sunlight that broke
on the sidelines of the stone then reflected so give the
impression of gloss on the stone (Mirror Cave). The reflection
stone that later became the origin name of Batu Cermin Cave.
The stone in Batu Cermin Cave contains salt particles causing
the stone sparkled when exposed to light. To watch the gleaming
stone tourists need to go to a depth of 20 meters in a narrow
area of the cave, 200 meters long. In the rainy season, visitors
can also reflect in a puddle of water into the cave. This puddle
was also glowing.
Batu Cermin Cave also has stalactites and
stalagmites, which even takes the entrance of the cave.
Therefore, in a tour is limited only 10 participants with the
tour time of 30 minutes. |
