If I discovered a cave like this on my property, I’d be inclined to shut up about it and build a home inside of it.

Pretty cool, I wonder if there’s any animals living down there.

SW Texas in the Sonora (town) region has lots of dissolution caverns.

After spudding a hole, it is expected to lose circulation before depth of the surface casing is reached due to drilling into and through a cavern.

"tiankeng," or "heavenly pit"

What a coincidence. That's what we ordered for dinner at the Seven Happiness Restaurant last week!

Someone tried to dig their way to China and finally succeeded.

Shoulder high undergrowth would be a bit hard to mow.

There's a place like that in Thailand about 300km from where I live. It's called Hup Pa That. It was an ancient limestone cave that had it's roof collapse about 1 million years ago.

It was first discovered by a Buddhist monk from a nearby temple back in 1979.

Of course they turned it into a tourist attraction lol.

Irritating web page. Too much movement going on.
No wonder half the population is ADD.

It’s like a Jules Verne novel. Yes, wonder if there are any animals down there. Or bugs that never went extinct.
