Description

The photo is taken in a gallery called Sala Mare from Women's Cave,a beautiful natural monument, geographicaly situated in Getic Depression of Oltenia, on the territory of Baia de Fier village, Gorj county, Romania.It is a cave about 7 km long, made by the Galbenu river (yellow river). The name was given by the fact that in the 19th century, when the Turkish army entered Romania, many women, children and the elderly ran to this cave to hide. It is also the first electrified cave from Romania (1965). Thanks all of you for the comments and viewings of my previous photos. Have a nice day.
