| About: | Four hundred million years in the making, Luray Caverns is one of the most spectacular sights in the eastern United States. Underground chambers, ranging from 30 to 140 feet high, display natural formations of columns, draperies and pools of water. Brick walkways lead visitors through different chambers, each with a wonder of its own. The Cathedral Room has a "Stalactite Organ," the largest natural musical instrument in the world. Guided tours are available every 20 minutes and last about one hour. |

I am spooky spooky Caveman lol: If you ever have the chance to go there, you should. Yall are missing out! We got the 1 hr tour of the caves. It was so cool. We learned all about stalactites and stalagmites and alot of them had formed over the years and looked like familiar shapes. Like there was the Disney World castle, sunny side up eggs, Goofy, and all sorts of other ones. Then there was like this foot deep water place and the reflection of the stalactites (limestone hanging from the roof of a cave) made it seem as if there was this immaculate section with both stalactites and stalagmites. But the stalagmites weren't really there; it was just the reflection from the water. Really cool! Oh, there was this one huge section of the cave that they call "The Cathedral" where they have this organ and the stalactites in the cavern produce tones of symphonic quality when electronically tapped by rubber mallets. They said a lot of people actualy have their wedding there. And there was this bouncy ball that got stuck up in one of the stalactites there that they say some kid from the 60's was playing with and it never came down. Well, it was cool. We all had a great time there. The ride to and from the caverns was quite scenic too. Ahh, natures beauty... just gotta love it.
