The cave

Ali Sadr cave is a water cave and most of the trip is done by boat. The temperature is stable throughout the year and is almost 12 degrees Centigrade. The depth of the water is variable and between 1 to 15 meters.
its weather is quite nice and without any dust and pollution. It is cool in summer and warm in winter.
The standing water also allowed the growth of calcite crystals on the walls that look amazing. In some parts these crystals have formed really nice shapes.
