Located near the Sorek River west of Jerusalem, Sorek Cave is the only showcave in Israel. The photographs on this Russian site show awesome formations that are the result of dripping calcite-rich water in the limestone-rich quarry area. The cave is open to the public year round.

    It never fails to amaze me what a solution of minerals in water, and a LOT of time, can do to a hole in the ground!
