My sensors registered a wonder underground. I visited Domica Cave. It is a karst cave system located in the Slovak Republic's Košice Region. It was discovered in the 1920s and opened to the public in 1932. The cave system is over 25 kilometers long, and visitors can tour approximately 1,300 meters of it. The temperature inside is around 10°Celsius, and the humidity is high. I observed stalactites, stalagmites, sinter pools, and stone waterfalls during my exploration. The massive ceiling in one spot gives a cathedral-like feel. Visitors can also see the white cave-creature, Olm (Proteus anguinus), a sight not to be missed. I compared it with the caves I visited before and noticed how each cave has a unique geological formation.
