Natural subterranean cavities, generally taken as thoselarge enough for humans to enter. They come in different flavours but the vast majority are formed in limestone by ground-water dissolving the rock - a vastly over-simpliifed description of the processbut that's the basic principle!
Caves are natural underground spaces formed by various geological processes such as erosion, dissolution of rock, or volcanic activity. They can vary in size and shape, containing formations like stalactites and stalagmites formed from mineral deposits over thousands of years. Caves are often used by animals as shelter and can also hold valuable geological and archaeological information.
The main types of caves are solution caves, lava caves, sea caves, glacier caves, and talus caves. Solution caves form from the dissolution of soluble rocks like limestone; lava caves are created by flowing lava; sea caves are carved by the action of waves on coastal cliffs; glacier caves form within glaciers due to melting and refreezing processes; and talus caves are formed by fallen rocks creating cave-like structures.
Yes, there are various types of caves, including limestone caves, lava tubes, sea caves, ice caves, and solution caves. Each type of cave is formed through different geological processes and conditions, resulting in unique characteristics and features.
Crystal Caves was created in 1991.
There are a total of 30 rock-cut caves at the Ajanta Caves site in Maharashtra, India. These caves are renowned for their ancient Buddhist cave temples and exquisite wall paintings.
The study of caves is called speleology. Speleologists study the physical characteristics, formation, and geological context of caves, as well as the flora and fauna that inhabit them.
The Ajanta Caves contain 29 caves in total.
There are 12 Buddhist (caves 1-12), 17 Hindu (caves 13-29) and 5 Jain (caves 30-34) caves. Total 34 caves.

There are many caves in Australia. Some of the better known ones are the Jenolan Caves, Wellington Caves and Abercrombie Caves. There are many spectacular caves that are not-so-well known throughout Australia. The Nullarbor Plain is a spelunker's paradise.
There are caves in many parts of Ireland. For example there are the Ailwee Caves in county Clare and the Dunmore caves in county Kilkenny. Thee are mountains all around Ireland and many caves can be found in them.
