| The caves were formed by the dissolution of limestone by water, which also produced striking stalactite and stalagmite rock formations. |
| Stalactites have a central canal that carries water from the feeder joint to the stalactite tip. |
| Fortunately, at that moment a drop from a high-up stalactite landed in the waiting pool beneath, making a loud splash as it landed. |
| There's no corner of this grotto without some form of stalactite or stalagmite. |
| Then came a warmer period between glaciations, and the stalactite grew. |
| Even as he watched, a droplet of water dripped heavily down from a stalactite far overhead, landing in the pond with fat, lazy ripples. |
