Description
This is one of the ancient Bell Caves at Beit Guvrin in Israel. The earliest written record of Maresha (Beit Guvrin) was as a city in ancient Judah. After the destruction of the First Temple the city of Maresha became part of the Edomite kingdom. In the late Persian period a Sidonian community settled in Maresha, and the city is mentioned in the Zenon Papyri (259 BCE).
There is a temperature drop of an approx 10 degrees celsius, waking in from outside to inside.

Superb capture! Light is great. Maybe I'm wrong, but I think this cave was the location of the first scenes of "Jesus Christ Superstar"

How exciting to be inside taking this shot! I am amazed there is such beautiful light shining in. When I see such formations I always wonder what caused their formation. Fascinating.
