Luray Caverns in Luray, Virginia. The one mile walk through the cavern is amazing when you know it has taken 4,000,000 centuries to make.
Stalactites grow from the ceiling.
Stalagmites grow from the bottom up.
This looks like a big canyon or pool but really is a reflecting pool from the roof reflecting off of about one inch of water.
Smaller formations from the ceiling are called Soda Straws.
And of course you need a wishing well. All the money goes to charity.
At the end of the walk there is a memorial to the local veterans who gave their lives in the four big wars.
